They are thre weeks old and come out the coop every morning be themselves. When it gets dark however they instead of climbing the ramp back into the coop, they gather underneath. I have to pluck them one by one and put them inside. The coop has wire bottom so if I were to turn a light on inside...
I oredered all pullets but I understand hatcheries are not 100% on sexing chicks. I got 50 SLW chicks out of which 1 has expired this morning. How many roosters can I expect to be amongst them and at what age can I tell with any certainty? They are 5 days old now.
