Hi
I have 3, 4 week old chicks and 3, 2 week old chicks and was wondering whether it would be ok now to put some dirt from the outside coop into my brooder so that the chicks develop a good immunity. I have 6 hens outside and will want to start introducing the chicks to them when they are a little older and the weather gets a little warmer (I live in the UK).
Thanks
