I have a corner in the coop where there is an opening where only the little chicks can get to the hiding spot to get away from older chicks.

I'm in the US, East Coast. It's great you have the coop ready for when you need it though! I bet it is a bit like nesting, waiting for the baby (babies) to fill the room! How many and what do you have?Ours are 2 1/2 weeks and also in a dog crate in our kitchen. Our coop is up and running, but empty! It's like when I was expecting! I'm in the UK. Where are you?x
I've been eagerly reading this thread, but am still not certain if I can move my babies out.
They're about 3 weeks old. They've been in a box on our screened porch, but now they can all fly out, so they're really just free-roaming on our porch, which my husband is not thrilled with.
I'm in central Texas, so the weather is mild (upper 60's at night, 80's in the day). We have an Omlet inside our coop, so they will have room of their own and shelter. The only problem is we've been getting so much rain!
Can I put them out and trust that they will go in the enclosure when it rains or is that old saying about being so stupid they'll drown in the rain true?
My Bigs are fine in the rain, but these little guys are just look so helpless!
Thanks!
We have 4 red sex links that were hatched in the reception class at my school. I am very excited!I'm in the US, East Coast. It's great you have the coop ready for when you need it though! I bet it is a bit like nesting, waiting for the baby (babies) to fill the room! How many and what do you have?
