Hi there,
I have two 4 week old chicks and four 1.5 week old chicks that are currently together in the same crate. Everyone seems to get along for the most part. (One of the older ones can be a little oblivious of the young ones and walks over top of them)
But I am noticing the older ones are beginning to keep their distance from the heat lamp but the younger ones are obviously still using it. Is it time for me to move the older ones into their own pen without a heat lamp?
Thanks in advance!
