Hi, I'm still new to chickens, I've only had them about 3 months and I've been reading up on them and I've seen some people say that when I introduce them to their outdoor coop I should keep them inside it for almost a week. I've had my chickens outdoors about a month and never kept them in longer than overnight. Should I try it now? They get very upset if I put them in the coop before dusk. They seem like they know they where "home" is but sometimes I'm not sure. Unless it's after dark, I have to chase them for a while to get them in the coop and every time they get frightened they run to my door. Does this mean they are confused and should I try keeping them inside for a week?
