Sorry to say but YES. They could have been outside a few weeks ago.
What do you mean 24 Cornish cross and 5 broilers? What are your broilers?
The broilers are Red Ranger Broilers. Yes on the Cornish Cross.

And if I may ask, why do you keep your chickens in utility trailers?
I just got my new chicks yesterday. Yeah! I have 17 or 18 of them. They are running around so much I can't get an accurate count (got some packing peanuts with one batch). I have fermented chick feed ready for them, but they don't seem to have any interest in it. They were hatched Monday and Tuesday this week. I put out regular dry feed and they go crazy over that. When they bite into the FF, they shake their heads and run away.
Is it an acquired taste for them? I was afraid to take away the dry feed because they are only a couple days old and don't want any of them die from not eating. Any thoughts? This is the first time I have had chicks, so a new process all the way around for me. Thanks for any suggestions you can give me for bringing the kids up on FF.

Great news on the temps to go outside!
New questions - what do you guys serve your fermented feed in? How long can it sit out for, or is it gone lickity-split? We are getting 25 Cornish x in a couple weeks and want to try this fermented feed thing. Any pictures you all have of your set up would be great! We just bought a farm over Christmas.....so it's like a blank slate
Thanks! I will give that a try. I assume I should remove the dry feed then? Hopefully if they get hungry enough they will start to eat the FF.
