    When can babies mix with adults?

    I put my babies in coop in A dog kennel for 1 week and then let them mingle with big babies. My rooster takes control of babies and he shows them everything they need and my black Jersey giant hen protects them. I have never had a problem doing it that way.

    One chick hasn't learned to go back in the coop at dark...

    I have 3 little hens that won't go in their coop at night. They just like the extra attention. She may have some sight problems. I feed and water them in coop until they go out into the run. Mine go out in the run at 3-4 weeks depending on weather.

    Keeping new chicks safe.

    Why move them? Let momma raise them with the flock. I have 7 hens with chicks in with my flock. I never move them unless a chick is weak and not thriving.

    Hope's Poultry - The First Flock

    I think Rhode Island Red. That is what I was told. She has a great personality. She loves to sit in your lap or on your leg and shoulder and to be petted.
