thay are 3 months old thay are in 6x10 chain lenk dog kennel we put chicken wire over the top to keep them from flying then a 4x6 tarp thay arent getting on the roost will thay figure that out or should i go out and put them on it other thing i hear turkeys will dround them selfs when it rains what ignerent people it is becaus thay get wet and get a chill with that do you think at 3 monthes mine are past that or should i cover the rest of the pen

Mine sleep outside starting at six weeks. By nine weeks they fly up to high roosts to sleep. If it rains, they get wet. You should be fine.
