2 part question! My 9 wk old chicks are coop trained! Its so cute and I am so happy. But they all still sleep in a pile like they always have. They roosts out in the run during the day. Is this just because of night temps (40’s 50’s out here in Colorado). And will I need to eventually set them on roosts at night to teach them or will they just roosts at night when ready? Second question, out of my small flock of 5, 2 are roosters that I am taking to a rescue ranch at the end of the week. My black jersey giant roo takes the lead on calling them into coop at night. Will they be very thrown off with losing the 2 cockerels? I plan on adding more pullets in a few weeks when done with our new larger coop
