In the Brooder
Hi everyone! I have 9 chicks who are nearly feathered out and will be transitioning to their new coop in a couple of weeks. I added tree branches for roosts in the brooder the very first week, but none of my chicks were ever interested in roosting at night. I decided to build a roost (I'll post a photo below) more like the one that will be in their coop to help them adjust prior to the move. They still rather sleep in a little "puppy pile" at night, although they'll hang out and roost in daylight. Does anyone have any tips to encourage them to roost at night? Thank you!!
