Starting a Coop

[jamieluzs4]

My chicks are about 4 weeks old. Right now they are in a brooder. I take them outside daily for them to take dust baths and flutter their wings. I know i will have to build a chicken coop, but when? Please help!

Hi and welcome to BYC from northern Michigan

Now. They will grow very quickly - full-sized by 14-16 weeks

from California! I would get started on that coop, depending on where you are the chicks can move outside to their coop once they are fully feathered.
