LOL yes! It will be fine until they start growing a bit. We've got three that are 5 1/2 weeks old now and they're small breeds. 14 more of larger breeds and I'm running out of cat-safe room here. The first week or two we'll be okay. Then we'll have to start improvising big time. We'll make it work some how. Then we have to hope all that clucking doesn't make the neighbors nuts. Well, some of them already are nuts but you know what I mean!

Kristin, Time to expand the coop? Or build a new one...
Mike, I'm right around the corner from you in Canton (almost) in E. Granby, up by Bradley field.
No, I don't mind the noise from take-offs at all, being a former USMC air-winger.

Yup. We're building a new coop. I'm more worried about the indoor brooding of them when they're 4 weeks old and getting bigger. Hopefully the basement will have warmed up by then and we can have some of them down there.

thats cool tomdeggeater. what kind of chickens do you have. also i just bought my first chickens at Flamig farm in west simsbury they only have rirs. and a few easter eggers but the wont sell those. but tomorrow they are getting a shipment of 400 rir pullets. and i will be getting some more of thoose on saturday. o and if you never heard of the farm you might regonize the back words egg shirts.

Hi Kristin, Basements usually take a long time to warm up, due to the thermal mass. You can help it along by using a fan to blow the warmer outside air in, for days even.

WOW the CT thread fell of a cliff and died!

 

[tomdeggeater]

Wow! This is an old thread. Who dug this up? I have moved down to Rocky Hill since 2008.
Still looking for a place where I can chicken up...
