    THey are to be at least 2 months old to put a split in middle of coop so that they can get use to one another. At age 4 months they can fend for themselves

    We moved ours from the incubator to the brooder and kept them in the the brooder for about 2 -3 weeks then we moved them to larger cages indoors for another 2 weeks.. As long as the weather was above 60 degrees then we would release them into the coop….Some times older chickens will attack the younger ones and kill them so you have to keep you eye on them for a while Hope this answers your question Good Luck

    You should put the baby chicks in when they are about 2-4 months old. And don’t put the chicks nder 1 month or they might die. So good luck!

    You don’t want to put them in with the bigger chickens until they are about 4 months old. They will get picked on a lil but you just have to keep an eye on them. But if you put them in there any younger than that there is a chance that they would kill the little ones.
    Good Luck!
