So getting my three kids each a chick for Easter was not impulse. We just moved to our dream house the month before and having backyard chickens for eggs was always a part of that. I thought I researched, but it is definitely a learn as you go process. Our pullets our about 7 weeks old and have been out for 2 weeks give or take. When can we stop giving them the "medicated" feed for young chicks? Also, where do you keep their food in the coop...in the run part of the coop or the closed part? I feel like when we close them in at night they still need access to food and water, but keeping it up there makes it messy. Any insight from the pro's would be lovely!
