The BEST Way to Transition Chicks to the Coop 

As always good information

I free range my backyard chickens, so I've done basically the same thing but only for about a week and I like the big girls to see the little ones, then I just turn them loose, because they're not trapped in the coop the can easily escape when being chased by the big girls, the little ones are just way to fast

Would love 2 have chickens but Visalia won't allow it. It's been before the city council many times but always shot down.
