Chirping
Our chicks are about 6 weeks old. It looks like they have most of their feathers and the weather is supposed to be sunny and up to 60 this weekend. My full-grown chickens have been running out the yard perfectly content so I thought I'd let the little ones enjoy some fresh air too.
Should I make a point of separating old hens from the young ones outside? Or is this a good time to let them become acquainted?
I wasn't planning to fully integrate for another month at least, maybe 6 more weeks.
Anything else I should be wary of while the little ones are out? (other than hawks!)
