My spoiled chicks love their coop & run but insist on sleeping in the house. How to change their wa

[aart]

Sometimes it helps to leave them closed up in the coop 24/7 for a day or two or three,
that way they will get comfortable in the coop and will go back in at night like they should after giving them access to the run again.

Whenever you change anything in a chickens environment or schedule, they don't like it but will adapt in a couple days.

To my surprise, when I went out last evening to put the chicks in the coop, they were already settle in and I just needed to close the door. I hope this is going to be a trend. I think it helped that they were already used to going in there during the day. I think Blooie described my problem eloquently.

Thank you, All
