Where do you keep your cornish rocks?

    Ok, so I did something kind of dumb. I wanted to try raising cornish rocks (for eating of course!). I got a little over zealous, and bought 15 at TSC.

    Now they are 2-3 weeks old. I can't keep them inside anymore......what do I do with them until they are ready to butcher? Where do you guys raise yours? Any inexpensive suggestions? I regret buying so many, lol!

    I had a long wire cage I thought about putting them in. But, I had something kill several in my flock way back in October. I haven't seen much since....but have been paranoid about anything getting my birds. IDK. Suggestions please?

    I only have 3 which are with my other chickens in a cage with a heat lamp. To keep them safe from others. :) mine are 19 days old.
