So I worked until 10 last night and I finished the roosts and the laying boxes in the coop. I just need to put some hardware cloth and some chopped calf panels on the outside run and cover a window this afternoon before moving. So here are my wrap up questions:
1. Should I put shavings on the floor like I have on the brooder side? It's a dirt floor. I put concrete in the brooder.
2. Do I need a separate grit feeder? I have a 12 pound hanging feeder for food?
3. Are shavings good to put in my nesting boxes?
4. Is there anything I need to make sure is out of the coop and run before I move them?
5. I have been leaving a 15 watt light on in the brooder at night. Should I continue that or no light?
6. Anything special I need to do when I move them?
I know lots of questions, but I want to get it right!
