Hi everyone,
I'm new to all this and am going to be picking up my chicks the week of sept 13th. (I can't wait!!!) I know that i will have to check on the chicks frequently (some say 5 times a day, others say every hour). So since I work from 9-5, I was thinking of having a similar brooder set up at work, at least for the first few weeks, so that I can be with them. My question is this...is it ok to transfer them back and forth every day? I would put them in an enclosed box, heat up my car beforehand, and the ride is only about 7 minutes. I don't want them to be stressed, so I don't know if this is ok or risky.
thanks!
