Raising meat birds outside

[chickenchicklady]

At what point can I move my chicks from their brooder to their chicken tractor? They’re a week old right now. Out temperatures are 30s-50s at night and 70-80s in the day. They’re out growing their brooder faster than I had expected.

I move mine out to the pasture after the 3rd week. 1 week might be a little early with those temperatures. They can also fall prey to ravens and other scavengers at that age unless you have hardware cloth on your pen.
