Hello all! Chicken newbie here
I am getting my 15 chicks in mid-February. I will start them inside, but am wondering when it is OK to move them to coop.
I'd like to move them by the third week in March because we have house guests coming that probably won't appreciate sharing their bathroom with 15 chicks.
We are in NC and temperatures in March are in the 60s during the day, but can get into the 30s at night. I'm wondering if they are 5 weeks old and I provide them with a heat source (we are using a heat plate), will they be OK in the coop?
Thank you!
