    Acclimating Chicks to coop

    I thought the temperature change might be too great for them. It will be a 30 degree difference from what their use to even after they get all their feathers. I really don’t wanna use a heat lamp. Thanks

    Acclimating Chicks to coop

    I’m just worried where it is getting down in the 40s at night. That’s quite a difference then what their use to. I think I’m gonna put a camera in there to check on them. Thanks

    Acclimating Chicks to coop

    My chicks are only 4 weeks old so they have a few more weeks to go. I have read the other threads on this issue but my idea is to use a heat lamp with a heat monitor to start and stop. My house stays at 70 degrees so I’ll start there then lower it a degree every day till I get to the night time...
