🐓🙌🏼 Moving the Chicks Outside from the Brooder

🐓 Learn the best practices for moving chickens outside from the brooder and transitioning them to a different environment. This guide provides essential tips on timing, preparation, and ensuring a smooth transition for your young birds to their new outdoor home.
🐔In this video, we build out a temporary run area, predator proof it, name the girls, and set up their outdoor space with a new ‪@OverEZChickenCoop‬ feeder and waterer, a roost, and lots more room to play!

Water is too low, I have same set up EZ has great products. I propped my waterer up on 4x4s so eye level with chicks, they immediately got hang of it. Great video!

🐔Yes, you’re right! My other one is propped on bricks for the big hens, and I need to put some under this one so they don’t have to stoop so low.

Great video! :) We are so happy that you and your flock enjoy the Chicken Feeder & Waterer!

Nice video. Very informative. You are definitely a good DIY er. ❤

[@lovelygardenlife]

At least they’re outdoors now in the fresh air!!🐓

[@cindyhebberd7352]

You need to elevate the waterer...it looks difficult for them to use...too low

[@lovelygardenlife]

Yes, I need to put some blocks under it. I have bricks under the waterer in my other coop and this one needs them too!

Interesting in info on the bracelets please!

[@lovelygardenlife]

🐓They came from Amazon. They've worked well and are large enough they don't bother the chickens ankles. This is the link she sent me from where she got them: www.amazon.com/dp/B01F7J8DLQ?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

@@lovelygardenlife thank you! Are they one size or are they adjustable to fit chicks too?

[@lovelygardenlife]

@@myshepherdcrew8608 🐓They seem to be one size, but they wrap so I think they could be adjusted. They’re bigger than my chickens ankles but their wide feet keep them on! 😀 I’ve seen them sold at feed stores too in small, med., and large sizes though. So, that could be a possible source for them near you.

I am I silly for taking my new chicks and putting them underneath my broody hen. I told her she has got to baby sit the chicks. They are a week old? It feels natural to let my hen tend to them.

[@lovelygardenlife]

I’ve seen people do that and just watch to make sure she accepts them. Did she take to them? 🐣🐥

@@lovelygardenlife she did , I have photos of the chicks popping their heads out of her wings. She seams content.
