[CHICKENS-101] Re: Question

 

Hi boki: First I wish you would get a "handle" that is a name, nickname, or something to be addressed by. I hate talking to a void.
Reviewing your posts you have had a terrible time with your chicks. Your last post was in late March with all the chicks dead. So these must be about 4 weeks old. I hope the temperature is between 75 and 80 deg F. especially at night. What kind of chickens did you finally end up with?
Getting them to go outside is a real problem. You cannot "GET" a chicken to do anything they don't want to do. Leave them alone with the door open and eventually they will be brave and explore the outside world. It might take a day or two.
