Hi all, I have a question that may seem kind of dumb... We are getting chicks Aug. 15 and are first-time chicken owners. So excited! I'm wondering if they'll be okay left home alone when hubby and I are work. Would you guys generally recommend monitoring them closely the first week? My husband mostly works nights and I work P/T days (25 hrs./wk), so the longest I think they would be left alone is 6 hours. So how often should they be checked on? I plan to have them in a plastic brooder in one of our bathrooms with the door closed so that the cats & dogs can't get to them, but I think the main concern would be temperature.
My husband works 2 min from home and I have a flexible schedule and I could probably bring them in with me if I needed! I'm picturing it now and I'm not sure it'd be a good idea lol
