hi,
We are new chicken parents. We have six bantam babies and two standard chickens...as of yet we have no idea what most of them are. I posted pics on the gender and breed forum but no luck. They are now 5 1/2 weeks old. We have been having unseasonably cool weather here(not that I am complaining!!!). Now in not sure when I can move them outside. Even in the house in the brooder they complain loudly if I turn off their heat light. I have moved it way above the brooder but they still seem to need a little extra heat. They are fast outgrowing their digs. I was hoping they could go out to their brand new coop soon (if not in the run). Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!
