Hi there,
I know the answer is "they will be fine" but I'd like some reassurance please. I'm a first time chick raiser, and our 10 week old chicks have been outside for a few weeks. There are four of them and they are happy in their coop, but here in Massachusetts it has been unseasonably warm until now. Last night it went down to 25, and tonight it will be in the teens. Will they really be warm enough outside? The coop isn't insulated but it's a good heavy duty coop. And should I keep it sealed up during the day? Normally open up the windows to air it out.
Thanks!
Liz
