    What Age to Let Chicks Walk Around in Garden

    Thank you! I think it is important they learn the skills of free ranging early. They are already catching on!

    What Age to Let Chicks Walk Around in Garden

    Usually in the 80s. I wouldn't let them walk around if it was 60 degrees. I am just trying to see if it is okay to do that. Like can their stomachs handle it.

    What Age to Let Chicks Walk Around in Garden

    Hello everyone! I am new to chicks, although I have had chickens before, but I have a question about letting them wonder around supervised. They are about 5 days old now, and I am wondering at what age, if I am watching them, can I let them walk around in the grass and in the garden a bit. Thank...

    That's funny. How old are your chicks now?

    How Much Room

    That's what I have heard! And that is why, this time I am going to add a roost in the run. In case they get in a little bit of a squabble, it also adds somewhere for them to go, if they cant be let out just then.

    She raises them for 4-H kids. Many of those kids like to buy adult birds.

    Are Silkies good with other breeds of chickens?

    Interesting. Thank you! I am looking for good egg layers, but I also want a Silkie as I have heard good things about them. And they are so darn cute, too! But I don't know if it is worth the risk of it getting picked on...

    Actually, the breeder I talked to will take a Silkie back if it is a rooster... So I don't know what the difference is.

    Coop Size & How Many Chickens

    Okay. So I am wondering if I did get all 5, and then I soon notice pecking, and the breeder would take the Silkie back, if that would be a good idea. Or if just sticking with 4 would be a better idea.... I don't know . Thanks for your help!

    Coop Size & How Many Chickens

    Okay. Yes, that is the thing. I don't have the chicks yet, so I don't know their personalities. They might be pecking each other constantly, and they might get along just fine. But is that something I would notice right away? Or does it take some weeks?
