Chicks with Mom - How long?

[danahudnall]

Hello friends,

My new chicks are almost a month old now and moma doesn't really want to hang out with them anymore. Can I let her go with the rest of the flock and leave the five chicks in their pen? We live in Florida so it's not getting any colder than, maybe, 65 degrees at night.

If she is ready to wean them, I would allow her to do so.
