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.
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 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.
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...
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!
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?
