What age would you let your chicks go to a new home? My friend wants two of mine but I am unsure of the age they need to be to send them on their way?

Hi,

We're about to pick up our first girls shortly & they'll be 8 weeks old.

Went to buy 4 - and ordered 8!

Can't wait!

Depends on what care the newe owners want to give them. Day old onwards.

Personally if I was giving some chicks to a friend I would just wait until they don't cuddle up to mummy anymore :cry: that to me is a good indication that they are going it alone and are okay. Hope this helps
