I'm so proud of Buttercup and Cj. I have been calling her "Clemopatra" but Cj is easier. Lol.
They don't know they are chickens! They don't scratch or peck. They eat from the feeder, and they try to dust bathe in pine shavings. When we go outside, they do nothing. I get the older girls around their coop after treats, but these 2 just watch. What do I need to do,
 
I have questions... I feel like a brand new Chicken Mama with these two. They are still inside. I'm afraid to leave them outside because of the weather. Also changed Buttercup's name to Ghost. He looks like a blue Clementine. I'm worried about him as his eyes are still a lighter color and he is kinda wobbly on his feet. The feet are too big for him I think as he steps all over himself. I think I will take them outside tomorrow because it's going to be in the upper 70s. But when will it be ok to leave them out all night too? They will be 3 months old Feb 1st

If your adult chickens are ok in the coop or wherever they sleep overnight, in your climate, then 12-week-olds will be fine too. They most likely could've gone outside full time weeks ago.
