Growing so fast

[Heatherlynnlc]

I cant believe how fast my lil chicks are growing. How much longer would you think it would be till I need to have my coop up outside for them? It seems like the time is approaching fast.

Do you have other chickens? The chicks should be fully feathered at 6-8 weeks which is when you want to put them in a coop outside.

I have 6 chicks my Leghorns are older by a couple of weeks and I have had them for about a month now

Have all your chickens been with each other? I personally dont add chicks to the main flock because of pecking order disputes

I have had them all together, I haven't had any issues with the older ones picking on the younger ones

So they should be good to go out once the little ones are fully feathered, which should be once they are 6-8 weeks old
