In the Brooder
I went through the search and found various opinions so wanted to ask for specific to my situation.
New to chickens, we have a self made coop and run made out of old child’s play house and swing set. Our girls are doing great varying in ages 5-7 weeks. There are 7 of them. We acquired 3 more chicks, ranging from 2-3 weeks old that have been inside under lights (PS do they need to be under lights if it’s warm in the room they are in?) when and how is the best time to introduce them to the big girls and have them in the coop? Big girls went in about 2 weeks ago. They’ve only met the little girls a couple times.....
