*please let me know if I posted this in the wrong thread*
I've never owned chickens before so this is all new to me-my 4 chicks (I'm guessing about 5-7 days old?) are happily dwelling in their Rubbermaid tub (30 something gallons, I'm guessing). I'm certain that sometime soon they will outgrow it, which leaves me to find another, larger home for them. Yesterday I went to Target and saw a Rubbermaid tub that was 52 gallons-do you think that this would be large enough to house 4 one-month olds in here before I move them to the coop? Any other suggestions? I don't want to invest a lot of money in it and I'm definitely not good with a hammer.
Thanks!
