I have a flock of 5 hens that are 5 months old, I was just given 3 new hens that are 4 months old. What is the best way to introduce the new ones into the flock?
I put my chicks outside today in a large cage until my coop is done this weekend, it's 60 out now and will drop to 34 tonight is it safe to leave them outside at 5 weeks old and pretty much fully feathered?
My chicks are 5 weeks old today, I moved them outside to a simple pen today as I finish up the coop. My question is that it gets to about 60 to mid 60's during the day and tonight it will be about 34, is it ok to leave them outside at this point where they are feathered out?
My chicks are 4 weeks old this week, they have tons of feathers. My question is, it has been in the mid to high 50's at night and mod 60's to 70's during the day so is it safe for me to put them outside in the coop?
Hi,
Is it normal to have one chick that is not growing as fast as the others.
I have had them for a week today, and all of them have doubled in size except for the one little one...
