Yes, thanks!! Once the whole unit is placed on the ground it won’t be steep. :)

We had a brief outing today! Not much picking, they were nervous, but so stinking cute! This weekend we are placing the coop on the ground (it is still on the 4x4s) and I hope to predator proof it soon. Until then, supervised excursions only. :)

If it warms up any today, I’m going to let them into the outside pen area. It is still on grass, I’m sure they’ll love that! I hope it gets above 60 degrees today. We’re in a cold snap - too early for me!

Love it!

I would be out there with them. I wouldn’t let them be out unattended. I’ll start taking them out there when the sun is out.

They’ve been out there for a week. It’s chilly during the day - in the 50s. I thought that would be too cold for them to go outside??

Just sand?

I have them in a coop (6’x6’). I bought contractor sand at Lowe’s. It doesn’t seem too coarse. I can add peet moss to it. Dust is not an issue. Is there a benefit to start now - or should I wait until they start to go outside?

I have contractor sand for my three week old chicks dust bathing. Do I need to do anything to prepare the sand and do I have to add DE or dirt?
