Hi,
I've adopted a foursome of (hopefully) lady chicks from a family that couldn't keep them. I have two buff orps and two black aust. They are now 6 weeks old and I've moved them from their brooder box to the outdoor henhouse/run I built last week. It's relatively warm outside but I've set up the brood lamp in their henhouse to keep it above 65 at night for the next week or two till they can deal with the sometimes 55* nights we've been having. I'll post some more pictures of my coop design in the coop section. I'm pretty happy with how it came out.
