Is it time for in the coop?

[Shawnstve]

I’ve got 11 birds, I believe about 5 weeks old. This week I’ve been bringing them out to the coop during the day and back in at night. There still is a little peach fuzz by their necks, but mostly feathered out. It’s been high 80’s to low 90’s in the day, and high 60’s to low 70’s at night. It’s starting to be difficult to catch them in the coop to bring in at night. Also the brooder seems to be over crowded…. They tend to fight more in the brooder and get along much more in the coop. Think I can leave them out now at night? I’ll post pics for you all to see them…

I think it depends on how warm it is outside, I brought my chickens in the coop around 5 weeks but I would sure to have a outdoor heater

At 5 weeks old they would be fine with a low of 40 F at night with no acclimating and you have been acclimating them. They are more than ready to go out.
