I have some new chicks on order who will eventually move into the current coop. I have 4 two yr old hens who have lived in the coop with an attached run and now I am considering building them a new coop and allowing them to free range. SO my questions are:
1) Will they adapt to free range after being enclosed for all their lives?
and
2) Will they go back to the old coop at bedtime or can I train them to go into the new coop?
