Hi Everyone!
So (weather permitting) it's the girl's moving day! I live in the Pacific NorthWest, and it's been about 50-40 degrees. My chicks are 4 weeks old (at least) and look pretty much feathered out. I'm going to the local Co-op now to get more bedding, food, and some grit and DE. I figured I'd use they're little feeders and water for now. Anything else I need? I'm thinking that I'll keep them in the coop for about a week or so with a heat light in there. I heard if you keep them in the coop for a week or so they'll know to go in there are night from the run. Any more advice before the big move? Thanks.
Here's the girls! Think they're big enough for outside with 40-50 temps?
And our Coop!! Should be done tonight
Thanks!
Courtney
