My chicks are 3 weeks old give or take a few days. They are in an outdoor brooder with all day access to their run since it's been really warm this past week. They still have a heat plate up in their coop but for the most part I've seen the temps in the coop get to almost 90 during the day and in the mid 60's overnight. On a normal day I come home about 5ish and check on them (please read that as play and love on them) and as the sun goes does tuck them back up in their coop and close the coop up tight, but last night I had a late class. I had expected them to be in a huddle puddle in their run under the coop but to my shock they had all gotten themselves into the coop and were "sleeping". I'm new to having chicks so was that some sort of fluke or are they really that smart/instinctual?
