Hello All. I received my first-ever batch of 12 keets from the Cackle Hatchery on the 19th of May, so they're basically barely 3 weeks old. We have just moved them from the brooder (4'x2'x2' steel tub) into a larger dog kennel (6'x6'x10') in the garage - same method we used for graduating our chickens to bigger and better things... anyway, I do have a coop for them outside, separate from the chickens because we don't let the chickens free-range.
My question is, when, or at what age, I should say, should I move them into their "permanent" home in the new coop, out in the yard? I know they are clearly not ready yet, but there are a few things that need to get done before they are ready, so I'm just wanting to make sure I have my... ehh... ducks lined up, so to speak.
