    What age to let chickens out to forage ?

    We We had a big problem with Black Widows and lizards. Since we got our chickens last summer I have not seen one black widow! I just saw a lizard yesterday but it was in the front yard. My son tried to catch it to feed to the girls but it got away!

    What age to let chickens out to forage ?

    Sometimes it is hard putting on those big girl panties! Good job! One day the front door to the pen that has the coop in it closed maybe the wind or one of the kids did it. Anyways the girls where sitting at the door waiting for me to let them in!

    What age to let chickens out to forage ?

    This is great to know , I am new to chicks. We got our girls right before they starting laying. Had one go broody and a friend gave a few eggs for her to hatch. 2 out of the 4 hatched and I was just wondering how long she would care for them.
