FEED IN COOP

[paulaj]

Hi moving my 2week old chicks to there coop do they need water and food at night not sure if i should put it inside or out

Both, Find a dry spot outside for the food and definatley put it it at night, however make sure the water is not to deep, because they sometimes lie in it and drown, especially if they cannot see because its dark,( or are you putting a light in?)
Make sure that the bedding is cosy and they can huddle together and keep warm.
Good luck

Ok the coop is inside with a light its just there getting to big and i want them to get used to there new home what do i put on the floor inside the coop wood shavings ?

Wood shavings is fine. You can put food both inside and outside if you wish but I'd just do one feeder, it's less to mess with. Water though, I tend to kind of put everywhere.
