Awwwwwww...........they're so cute. I was wondering what size and brand your chicken coop is because it looks VERY similar to mine. Mine is 4x6 with a 7.5 x 7.5 run. Did I mention, YOUR CHICKS ARE SO CUTE?!!?
How old were your chicks when you moved them into the coop?

It's a 4X6 Amish coop. It's completely draft free and has electricity so the 3 heat lamps keep it toasty warm. They are just 2 weeks old now and are doing really well. I have a 10X10 kennel attached to this coop and when it warms up outside and they get a little older I'll open the hen door. I have a much bigger coop that I'm hoping they'll eventually want to roost in once they get to know my other flock.

aww...pardon my newbie-ness but what are the little reddish brown chicks? They look like they are going to be pretty!

If your talking about the little girl in the 9th pic, she's an Easter Egger. I got her at the local feed store and I think she's the cutest of the whole bunch

You hve the same coop as me. Just that I don't have electricity in mine. I don't really need a bigger coop because I only need to house 5 chickens, 2 call ducks, and 2 silkies. Do you think they have enough room? They will probably get free range, too.

Yes! I'm getting some EE's this week, I hope mine are that cute! I've never seen one that color. I'd love to see pics as they grow.
