    When can I put my chicks outside with my other hens?

    I am also in the same situation. Chicks born August 6th. Put them outside last week when weather was above 50 degrees at night. Still used a 60 watt red light in the henhouse at night though (probably more for my peace of mind than for the chickens). Weather is predicted to be in the 50's...

    Barred Rock looks suspiciously like a cockerel

    See attached. I just noticed today that my barred rock has a comb that is a little redder and more prominent than the RIR and araucana that were hatched at the same time (august 6, 2008). Can anyone confirm the sex of my little barred rock?? Thanks!
