Why is my chick chirping ?

[chickenlittle21]

No, they just bunched up together, it gets pretty windy here and the coop is not insulated. I covered it with tent so it would be a little better for them.

You need to give them a heat lamp. That was my mistake when I first had chicks and 2 of them died because of it.

The chicks look fully feathered. They are likely chirping because they are scared and cold, this is a new place so everything is scary. Be sure the pen is set up where it will be sheltered from the wind.

As others have suggested give them a low box just a little taller than they are and cut a wide opening on one side (the side that doesn't face the wind). That gives them something to huddle under so they feel a bit protected.

Are you building a larger coop for them? With a run that provides at least 10sq feet of space per bird?

Get a box big enough for them and few days later cut few holds so they can get out the large area and go inside a night. You can also use the some type of the temperature gauge to see what temperature at night. I am using the BBQ temp and work just fine. The chick 1 day -1 week old can handle 80-90F, 2-3 weeks old 75-85F, and 3-4 weeks 70-80F. If you have more than 8 chicks the temperature can be little lower. The chirping more likely mean too cold or not sure where to go sleep.
