Hello everyone. I have 100 cornish cross chickens. I was wondering when to move them. As of right now, they are 5 days old. I am planning to build a large but short coop on wheels that I will pull around with my 4 wheeler. The back part will be closed off (except for the front of the back where the door is, the purpose is to protect from thong digging under at night) and then the front front will be completely on the ground so during the day they can be on fresh grass and peck bugs. The only thing that I am wondering is when should I move them?
 
Depends on your temp and location, normally the 2nd or third week should be fine, in my location we are having 90s temps already which is very conducive for an outside move, now you have to watch for the night temps if it’s dropping to low.
