Have read in Storey's Guide to Raising Chickens that giving chicks a day "night" cycle is a good idea pretty soon in their little lives. Obvious - once I read that! So my question to all is: How did you all do that. Back to Storey's... it suggests turning off the heat lamp for 30 minutes out of a 24 hour cycle. I guess you'd have to drape the box to: 1. Allow the heat to stay in and 2. Make it dark enough to look like dark.
What have folks out there done? Mine are a week old, in a big box in our entryway on a table, thriving and I don't want to throw them for a loop!
So, help please
