Welcome to BYC.Tomorrow they will be 5 weeks old, I will have there pin ready by the first of next month and man am I ready for them to go out.
I do like that idea I'll remember that on the next bach, I've been taking them out for the last week or so and letting them play. I just have to get paid so I can finnish there pin. LOLWelcome to BYC.
Looks like they're ready too!
Consider bringing in some clumps of dirt with grass attached from the pasture they will be going into, if you haven't already done so. It's a great enrichment activity that provides some natural grit and busts boredom, but more than that it gives them a LITTLE exposure to the things in your pasture to help build up some immunity before going out full time.
They’re so big! So you’re putting them in the coop at 6 weeks?Tomorrow they will be 5 weeks old, I will have there pin ready by the first of next month and man am I ready for them to go out. 13 in total and for the first time I did not lose a single bird. Yay for me!
Where do you put them when you take them outside?I do like that idea I'll remember that on the next bach, I've been taking them out for the last week or so and letting them play. I just have to get paid so I can finnish there pin. LOL
If you have the time and energy for it, setting up a small run for them made out of chicken wire works well. Just be sure to put a top on it as small birds are a bit of a target for predators.Where do you put them when you take them outside?
I have a dog kennel I use for new /sick or woonded chickens, I put them in there.Where do you put them when you take them outside?
I put them out first thing in the morning and bring them in before night fall. There fully fetherd and have been off the heat lamp for almost a week new.They’re so big! So you’re putting them in the coop at 6 weeks?
