Such a refreshing video!! Great dad, happy daughter with a cheery disposition, and a fantastic camera lady. I'm no homesteader, but I took the plunge and now have five 5-week-old chicks who will be making the move to coop in a week. They have already been such an amazing experience for my 8 year-old son and me. Noway I could name any of them "Dinner" though. My son already told me he would move out if that happened.😄 But we'll have plenty of eggs for our neighbors.😁 Thanks for sharing your video.

The good thing about living with my chickens (in my room) as they grow up is that they are super friendly, and come to me (to stand on my head mostly). But my allergies will be glad to move them out in a few weeks if I can get my coop built by then.

Weve got 30 fowl on our farm. We have a good-sized garden thats doing really well with the rain weve had in North Texas. We just moved our chicks, ducklings, turkeys and goslings to their coop. We fashioned it from an old horse stall attached to our barn. They got too cramped in the coop and had started pecking each other. We havent handled them too much so theyre pretty skittish. Im gonna be taking my 2 young boys out every day to give them treats and help them warm up to us :)

I used to think critically of ppl’s vids where they showed poopy stuff, now mine are three weeks old, and..now I know why! They are masters at scratching stuff up in the air and getting poopy shavings into their water, food, air, your hair, everything..You can retrieve escapees with treats like Grubterra larvae..your barred rocks look like my Cuckoo Marans. My Black Australorp seems to be top dog in my mix of Bielefelders, Cuckoo Marans, Speckled Sussex, Whiting True Blues, and an Ameraucana.. You might try soil acidified to help nitrogen uptake..

Glad to find your channel and this informative video. We have 6 chicks of various ages, who get along well. I'm planning to introduce them to our small flock of 4 together when the youngest one is 6 or 7 weeks old (oldest will probably be 11 or 12 weeks old). I think I will put them inside a carrier or "small portable run" outside with the other chickens for a couple of days, but not inside the chicken coop at night until then. What do you think? I hope they will be able to follow the big chickens inside the coop to discover their new home. Raising chickens is a new experience for us! Your daughter did a great job, by the way.

My climate is cold in winter, I’ll need to keep food inside. I’ll throw scratch and treats and stuff to get them out, but, they’ll probably spend quality time in their nice coop. I’ve run electricity to it, lights, I may, may use a radiant panel heater, we will see, it’s my first batch of chicks ever in a brand new coop and run. I know it’s anthropomorphizing them some, but I can’t see keeping them “on ice” for months at a time with no relief, I did double wall and insulate, they might like the occasional warmer upper on 5-7F degree nights..

The Rhode Islands were 6 weeks old when I put them out in the coop. Your nesting boxes sound like the proper size so no problem there. Just remember they cannot go inside their nesting boxes until they are close to egg laying age. Block off the boxes with some cardboard until they are ready or they will just sleep and poop in them which is not good.
