They arent out in a coop, as they are still so young and its so cold out. They are in a brooder in my house. I dont want to wait until they are adults as that would make it much more difficult to tame them. I know this, because i have 4 chickens who I bought as adults back in june who still wont...
They are too young and flighty to go outside right now, and its too cold. my older chickens do love that though! i have several boards throughout the run, and i move them here and there.
Thanks! Good point about the fear of overhead things! I didn't even think of that. I try this for the next couple weeks and see what happens. Thanks for the advice!
