I never use a night light for my chicks. From their first day here they learn that nighttime is for sleeping. If I left the wrong impression I do apologize! This video was taken when the chicks were 6 days old...I know I say "5 days" on the video but hubby corrected me later. At first the video is dark..don't adjust your monitor. <grin> You'll hear a little contented churling from them and then nothing but the annoying clock over my left shoulder. These are the only chicks who got to live in the house for a week. The rest go outside almost immediately, after I've assured myself that they are eating, drinking, pooping, and recovering from shipping well.
@KirstenColorado Your coop looks fantastic. I forgot to mention that, sorry! Isn't it great that so many people are always so willing to share their experiences? I've learned so much here, and I keep learning. The great thing about anonymous advice is that you can read it all, then pick and choose what fits your situation and politely acknowledge and then ignore what doesn't. Nobody ever knows!
Ken is doing great, thanks for asking! It's always easy to tell you are living in Wyoming when you step out the door and get a mouthful of Idaho. <sigh> You know it well - the wind never stops! Sounds like you have a sound plan all going.
