HI All,
My chicks have been in the backyard now for a few weeks (they're 12 weeks old) - and they love it. It's a big yard, plenty of grass, trees, and bugs to catch but they seem to like just hanging out under our house in the dust pit that it is.
I always imagined I'd be looking out to the yard to see them scratching away but no, they don't come out much unless I go down there to play with them.
Will they just gradually start exploring the yard or do I need to coerce them out and fence off under the house - I don't think it's much fun for them under there.
Thanks in advance !
