Getting the chickens into the coop at night

~*Sweet Cheeks*~ :

I didn't have any trouble getting my ten 8 wk olds to go out or back in at night.

They were in the coop for 2 full weeks until I completed their run this weekend.

I did the same thing, they lived in there from the time they were a few weeks old. I let them out about 3 or 4 pm so they dont have too much time to roam too far but If i have to go some where I call them and throw out just a couple sunflower seeds at a time then throw them in the coop, they go right in.​

At that age, I had trouble getting mine to come outside for the first time.
