Movin' on up

The chicks are growing like crazy! They've just about outgrown their first home (aka... a large cardboard box in our basement).

This weekend, we need to move them out to the coop, but we need to do some work first. Dan's going to building a brooder box that will hover about 8 inches off the ground with 2 light bulbs under it. If the chicks are cold, they can go under it, if they're hot they can step out for some fresh air.

We're looking forward to moving them to their permanent home. Will post pics of their new home.
