Chickens flying the coop - (Brooder)

by martin gutzmer <mrgutzmer@[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Jun 25, 2008 at 08:47 PM

Hi Folks,
I have 50+- chicks that are now 13 days old.
I got a mixed straight run - so some are BIG and others ar not so
much.
Some  seem ready to take off -  others not.
I have two rubbermaid tubs 2 x 4 x 2 feet, and the bigger chicks were
escaping into the room!

The average night temp is now 70 F and 80-90 F in the daytime - I have
discontinued use of the heat lamp at daybreak, can I also discontinue
it at night? they seem awfully  hot.
Also should I separate the little from the big, and keep them in,
while letting the bigger ones have some more room?
Please advise,
Thanks,
Martin
