First of all, I'll get a picture of the chicks later!
Our 3 five/almost six week old chicks have begun to get really anxious about being let out of their coop & run to 'free range' with the others. Both chick coop and flock coop are within a secure 'free ranging' yard.
As long as I watch them, can I let them out for a few minutes a day until they're big enough?
The last batch of chicks from April were raised by our hen, Mouse, which is why I wasn't too worried about them being attacked by anything as she protected them well enough.
I'm mostly worried about our 4 month old cockerel attacking them.
