Okay well I am new to raising chicks and ducks. I have 5 chicks and 2 ducks that I plan to raise. I live in the city and need to be as clean and tidy as possible. I want to build a area inside my garage that would hold the chickens and ducks. I plan on framing it in and using chiken mesh to make the Walls. I will use the walled side of the garage and put nesting boxes etc. My question is well is this a good idea. They will have about 64 by 4 feet run area. Ittt is dirt and rock but I will also put some shaving down. Also when can the chicks got to the garage with the heat lamp on them??
Any and all advice will be welcome. The garage I feel would be good as there is electric and would keep them shealtered in the winter. The only issue I would see is that the garage door gets opened a couple times a day to go to work . I have to pay the bills so they will live the life they will be accustom to lol
