Hey everybody!,
So here in Maryland we are having a two day snow storm (even though spring started yesterday), and the way its going all this 12-20 inches of snow will start to melt tomorrow through weekend. Next sunday and monday temps will be in the low 50's, with each day getting higher and higher. I checked and its supposed to be in the low to mid 60's by mid next week. The night temps will be anywhere between low to mid 30's, to upper 30's low 40's. Now, my chicks are 4 weeks old tomorrow and are just about fully feathered. Do you think it is safe to say they will be ok if I put them out in their coop and outside starting next week? Or is it still too chilly?. They are very restless and ready to say the least to get outside. This past weekend when it was in the mid 50's during the day and the sun was warm I had them out in their run outside for a few hours to kind of introduce them to the outside. Needless to say they absolutely loved it!. Im thinking they will be ok next week, but just wanted all of your opinions. Thanks for any help you can give!!!!
