Bigger pullets looking about 5 weeks; very scraggly. Coop and run now complete! Thinking of doing a trial run with birds closed in coop tonight. Low is 69*. Thoughts?
Age is unknown. My hunch is 3-4 weeks for the larger based on the neck feathers coming in. These three are the only ones I have. The coop run combo is from Tractor Supply - dimensions of the coop itself are about 32' x 24' with nest boxes attached to the back.
I think I'll keep them in...
Hi! Brand new to chickens and I wonder about this as well. Day temps are mid to upper 80s and nights are around 65. Are nights too cool for little ones? I have no idea the age of these chicks/pullets. Neck feathers are starting to come in.
My thought was to move the coop to get full...
Hello! We picked up 3 barnyard blend chicks over the weekend at the local farm meet and promptly built a coop. Then, we realized our S. Ga. temps were too cool for our young ones so they are in a makeshift brooder in the laundry room. Hope they can make it outside soon!
