Hello fellow chicken owners!

[omalin]

Hello from northeast Ohio. This is my first year raising chickens. Don't know what I'm doing but am learning a few things. Any help is welcome as I want my chicks to be healthy and produce good eggs. I got Barred Rocks, twelve of them. I think they are ready for the A framed chicken coop we bought and we attached an 8'x8' outside run. They are in the brooding box and are starting to jump out. Any advice???

Greetings from Kansas, omalin, and

! Pleased to have you in our community! My best advice is to take a long tour of the Learning Center link below. It will give you tons of knowledge to help you become a responsible poultry keeper.
Good luck to you!

Hi and welcome to BYC from northern Michigan

Until chicks are fully feathered at 6 weeks of age they will need supplemental heat if the temps drop.
