I have 10 week old chicks that I moved outside today. Thing is, the temperature plummeted to 28* and it's only 7:30PM.
Here is a photo of them in their coop:
The coop has windows that have been blocked, and there is a "heat" lamp that doesn't seem to be doing much. I touched it and it didn't burn me...I have a feeling someone switched it with a floodlight or something.
Is it too cold out for them now? They were huddled around the lamp, but as soon as I opened the door, they scattered and went to eating.
