I don't have any more. I only had 4. I feel like I majorly let those little guys down but I guess this is a learning experience.Much better!!!
How are any remaining partridge cochins doing?
what do you recommend for when they get bigger?Love it. Still going to be outgrown by they time they hit 2.5 weeks, but much better than what they were in before.
I have a screened in porch that I can put them out on. How soon should I put them out there?For a temporary brooder (if you plan on only raising chicks once a year) a wardrobe box from U Haul is perfect for groups of 10 or less. And I'd get them out of the house and out in a garage, basement, or other unheated spot so that they can be hardened off and outdoors in their coop sooner.
They double in size each week, so they outgrow storage tubs and pet crates quickly.
