ok so we have our 12 2week olds in a 2' by 3' metal dog crate. It worked for the first week but I am thinking it is too small for them as they grow, now I have another one that matches but I am not sure if seperating them into two side by side crates like that will cause problems when I move them to the adult coop. they will be adjacent in the shed and able to see each other but not neccessarily interact and they get short visits to the adult coop theyll be in but it is not done complete and predator proof so every night must be in the shed still.
