At 5 weeks they are probably ready, are they fully feathered? As long as it's not going to drop below 32F they should be ok without heat.Hi All-
I am so thankful to hear from all of you! I am loving this adventure! I appreciate all of your help. My babies are 5+ weeks old and my kind husband is building a coop for them. We are in Sullivan County, NY - 2 hours from NYC but in the country. I am wondering about a heater in the coop for them this time of year- the weather here is so variable. They really need to stretch their wings but when should I put them in the coop?
Thanks all-
Wendy aka WenHen
