how old do the baby silkies have to be before they go outside. have large pens, nesting boxes in the pen. hay and shaving in the pen. the chicks r 10wks and the others r 8 wks old. they r in the laundry rm. but am ready for them to go out. They r in a large cage. Temps here r about 18 to 40 degrees at night.. I can lock them in the nesting boxes at night.
I bet you are ready for them to go out side as I put mine out side at six weeks of age and it gets down to 19 F right now but there are also fifteen of them to keep each other warm how many do you have and will they have there own area to sleep in ....... gander007
