Hello,

I just got my first two chicken (Buff Orpingtons), hatched in November 2011, i.e. mature hens.

The place I bought them from is a full-pasture egg farm, so they're used to a lot of freedom. Now they stay in my smallish coop (32sq.ft).

The question I have is: how long will it take for these hens to get used to the new home well enough that I can let them loose in the backyard?

Thanks,

Serban
