6 weeks old. Ready for outdoor coop at night? Overnight lows of 40.
 | New parent of 5 chicks. Currently 6 weeks old (Born April 1). We live in northern MN where our temps are 40 overnight and up to mid 50s in the daytime. We have an Omlet Eglu for them, so they will be enclosed and protected overnight. They are currently in a brooder with a heating plate in our detached unheated garage. [link] [comments] |
