    Nervous about leaving vents open

    My 4 chicks are 10 weeks old. I only just got them this week...I’ve been so nervous about leaving their vents open. I know it’s safe to do so because we used hardware cloth on all openings and it is very secure. But I just keep worrying that it’s too windy... or predators will find a way in...
