Hi all,
I'm planning to get my first chicks this coming June. They will probably be Black Sex Links and/or Golden Comets. I'm planning to keep them under a heat lamp in my garage at first, then transfer them to an outdoor tractor.
Questions: What age will they be when they are ready to be weaned from the heat lamp and what size will they be then? What is the ideal height for watering nipples for grown chickens? For half-grown chicks?(Want to know so I can plan their accommodations accordingly.)
Thanks in advance,
Poppy
