Let Your Light Shine ~ Matthew 5:16 🤍✝️
Hey there! Next week, (In about 8 days) I’m hoping to move my chicks outdoors. It’s going to be fairly chilly, low of 30-40 degrees, high of 60, but I really need to have them out soon. I’m going on a trip at the end of April and want them to be fully integrated with the flock. They are currently 4.5 weeks, they will be 5.5 weeks when I plan to move them. There are 7 chicks, although it might be 6 as one seems to be a cockerel and we can’t keep roosters. Should we put them in the coop at night with the big girls, or will they be better by themselves? I’m guessing the coop is warmer (and less drafty) then their mostly open air chicken tractor. They are currently in the garage, it’s about 50 degrees, but they have a heat lamp so it’s more like 65-75 Degrees.
Anyway, my questions are
1. Will it be to cold?
2. Any tips for keeping them warm, without a heat lamp?
Thanks in advance!
