As some of you know, my chicken Jack was sick a while ago. Since he was sick I brought him in the house to live. He's been living in the house since then. Now that he's fully recovered I want to put him back outside with the rest of the flock. The thing is that he's so used to being in the house that when I try to put him outside he comes back up to the door and cries and pecks at the door until I open it. When I do, he walks straight to his cage. He's been very spoiled while he's been recovering. Being held all the time and getting hand fed and staying in the warm house. Anyway how should I introduce him to being an outside chicken again? It's been getting down to 21 degrees at night here. I don't want him going into shock from the temperature difference. Will he be able to adjust or will he have to be a house chicken forever? lol Like Phillip the house chicken on youtube.
Here's my baby boy :]
