Chicks are two weeks old. We have the brooder heat lamp on constantly. In the day we add another room light to make it look different that just the red light.
When can we start to train the chicks to sleep at night with no light at all?
They all seem to be very happy but definitely play and sleep on and off throughout the day and night. I'd like to get them to roost at night so they will be ready for the coop with the automatic door. They love the roost that I have in the brooder. Always hopping on and off.
Thanks for some replies.
