Chicks are 5 weeks old today, want to move them out within a couple weeks if possible okay I would LOVE to get them out of my house today
There's no easy way to change the room temp to get them ready. I dont have a cold basement, garage, porch etc. The temp change will be kind of drastic. The lowest I can get the room they are in without creating a major draft seems to be 60*. Today I am turning off the ecoglow during the daytime hours, hoping this will help-
I guess my question is, do I just go ahead and bite the bullet next week and put them out in the coop with the ecoglow? And maybe this is silly but is 6 weeks fully feathered meaning at the end of 6 weeks, beginning of week 6 or does it matter?? Outside temps will most likely be 50* high and 25 lows very soon- right now we have SNOW on the ground...who would of thought!!
