Chicks first night outside

[SIMZ]

They'll be fine! At night they'll be roosting and won't even think about eating - they won't eat in the dark anyway.

Are they making really fast chirping sounds? If so, that's completely normal for chicks just learning to go into a coop at night. Give them a few weeks and they'll know what to do when it starts getting dark!

Just remember that chickens are... well... chicken. They tend to be scared of new things. It takes them a little time to become comfortable in new conditions, but they adapt just fine.

Thank you!

6 week old chicks (4) out tonight. I’m feeling very anxious for them. Don’t know how we’ll do it yet, they always come to patio door to come in house. I guess we’ll grab them and put them in locked coop. I know they’ll be scared. They’ve gone up into coop on their own for naps on occasion, but look forward to coming in at night.
