We built a brooder before we brought our chicks home. Originally we ordered 22 (20 pullets, 2 cockerels). A short series of events resulted in us leaving the store again the next day with 9 additional chicks (supposed to be all gals). I put the roosts in when they started jumping around a lot, about a week old.
Now they are getting so big and are WAY too crowded, but here they are a couple days ago, 4 weeks old. They do like the roosts and use them frequently, just not to sleep at night.
There is slso two little Bantams now as well. We are all looking forward to this weekend when they will be moved outside and be "free" from their crowded confinement! Hopefully they will figure it out soon. :-D
