new coop is all done...

[purplepeep]

...and my 7 weekers are out in their new house. YAH-HOO! They Love their chicken door and ramp, and all take turns running up and down it. The seem happy as can be...

Now here's my question, Will they know enough to go back inside to eat, drink, warm up, etc...??? I have their heat lamps on inside their coop, since its still only around 15C here. However, they all seem to prefer being out in their yard. I 'tuck them in' around 8:00pm, once I notice that they have all headed back into their coop. Any thoughts???

lock them up inside their coop at night --- make sure they have food an water inside with them

might take a week or so before they get the picture

Their feeder and water fountian are inside the coop, and I lock them in at 'bedtime'. In the morning, they're all lined up at the chicken door, wanting to go out. Once they're out there, will they know enough to come back in through out the day to eat, drink, warm up, etc???
