Hello, we are planning on moving our chicks (2 will be 8 weeks, 2 seven weeks) into our small coop adjacent to our seperate larger coop and run (which houses 4 mature hens), using "see but don't touch" for a week or two. We are taking them outside for a time each day to acclimatize them to the outside world. Do you recommend keeping the chicks closed inside the coop for a time before letting them out, so they know that is home? It has become hot fast here in the Pacific NW and I am worried about closing them inside a hot coop. There ia a small window.
