Should I leave them in the coop part for a while before letting them have access to the covered run part of the coop? So they will learn to roost and automatically go back up at night? I had some large branches for them to roost on in the brooder but none of them have ever used it. Possibly not high up enough... Anyway, how long should I keep them in the coop part before letting them have access to the runs? |
