I have 5 chickens and a rooster that I need to re home. They lay brown, green and light brown eggs. We are in Lake Stevens, Washington.
I'm hoping this is the right place to post? I also posted in the re homing section.
I have another question. They are getting too big for the brooder, so I'm going to put them in the coop overnight.
How long can they be locked in there without food and water? It's 8pm here now and it's still light. Do I wait until sundown? And I'm an early riser, so I should be up to let them...
I know they are too young now. They are only a little over 2 weeks old. But they are growing so fast! Are they going to get too crowded in the brooder? We have a coop, but we still need to fence in and secure an area for them to run around.
