My girls are now 7 and 8 weeks old, and I feel a bit over due for the big move out, lol! We already have 2 hens (about a year old) that are in a Tractor Supply coop with a run built into it, which is inside the much bigger chicken yard my husband is about 75% done building. The big girls are out...
