Our girls (3BR and 3RIR) are spending their first night in their coop. They're 4 1/2 weeks old and feathered out. They've been really ourgrowing their brooder. I took them for some 'free range' time today and decided to let them stay. We were going to wait until next week because I still don't have my permit from the city but I hadn't seen the chicken police patrol around much so we decided to go with it. We'll get the permit next week still.
It's a little more difficult because they are a couple blocks away. I live in a condo with my wife and kids so my garden and coop is at my father's (where I grew up) which is a couple blocks away. So, there is no checking on them until the morning.
I don't really have any questions or advice. I guess this is just a support group kind of thing...as I sit here, forlorn...pining away....*deep sign*
