Yes, we have a tarp to put up ASAP. ThanksHello and welcome to BYC!
I'd say they are nearly ready. If they are fully feathered, they should be ok. You might cover the part closest to the coop for shade, protection from rain and also to give them security. Chickens don't like to be too exposed.
Welcome to our community!
Yes, we have a tarp to cover half the run, we literally just finished predator proofing so its next on the list to put it up. I did read up on “jealousy” and “haircuts”, so I’m aware of those possible issues. As far as roosters go, yes I have a plan for any that might be.Welcome to BYC. Chickens do better with cold than with hot weather. Do you have plans to cover part of your run?
Also be very alert when you add those little ones in. Silkies and polish tend to get picked on because of the crests that obstruct their vision. If one or more of your marans is a rooster, do you have a plan? You may need a second space in order to protect your bantams.
Great idea, thank youHello and welcome to BYC! Glad you joined.
I'd put them out with a huddle box. They'll love it.
