Would the bigs be able to see the littles if you put them in your small coop? At 5 weeks they should be feathered enough to be outside. I live in Texas, so similar temps.Nice setup! I have a coop and a large run, then right behind the run I have the little coop. I live in FL so I was wondering if I should put them outside right now.
That brings up another question, I have two 5 week old chicks. when should I start introducing them into the flock? Should I even bring them outside?
Then that would work perfect as long as it's secure. When they get comfortable you can spread a little scratch or even chicken feed along both sides of the runs, so they get used to eating by each other. Then it's just a watch and see kind of thing. Usually when the bigs have lost all interest in them it's time for the actual introduction. Keep us posted, and I wish you the best!They can be seen easily. Cool that you live tin Texas!
You are very welcome!Thank you so much everybody for the advice! Thank you so much
