Fluffy Butt Acres: Stories of our flock

Will Mr. Rooster be okay by himself in the white coop? Or should I set my other brooder plate up suspended above the roost so he can stay warm when it gets below freezing?

Awwwww - sweet beautiful boy

Okay, I'm planning on getting the boy for now. Tomorrow early afternoon. Plan is to hold him for breeder buddy until we can arrange meeting up in the middle of the state (hmm, does this sound familiar to anyone?)

Yep - and I am wondering if he stays there permanently…????

Depends on what housing he is coming from. If it’s a warm inside coop or colder outside one? Good thing is, it’s not December!

As long as he is dry and no drafts, he should be ok.

We'll have to see. Hubby is...very not happy about it. But if we can't arrange pickup of course he'll stay.

I KNEW IT!!!!

What can I say, I'm weak for those crests!

I will ask tomorrow. The little coop has a big ventilation area above the nest box, but I was checking yesterday inside and didn't feel any drafts above the roost bar. Plus the nest box is very cozy if he prefers to sleep there.
I will have to go out and play with him so he doesn't get too lonely. Internet says the chicks need to be at least 10 weeks old before they can be introduced to him, does that sound accurate?
