I can't say. I rarely, if ever, see a sunrise.

Andy, sunrises are the ones you see before going to bed after a long night out.

At my age, late night is the 11:00 news.

I think sunsets have more colors, but sunrises are more uplifting. They start the day out right.

Where are they moving from/to?

From their brooder into their coop.
I still have a heat lamp down low for them.

Awww! Papa Pac's poultry!

Pac, how old are those chicks/chickens now? You wrote about them somewhere else here, but I can't remember what kind you said they were.

 

[pacanis]

Somewhere between 3-4 weeks, TL.

achoo!

Pac, those chicks got big fast. At what age are the able to start giving you eggs?

 

[pacanis]

They sure did, Andy.
Last time I got chicks (around the same time) I started getting eggs in November and they laid all through winter without artificial lighting. That was a few weeks late if I recall. Generally you start looking at six months of age.

I remember checking the nestbox, checking the nestbox everyday, several times each day, as freezing temps were here and I didn't want to lose my first egg to freezing. It was quite the present and surprise to finally see that first little brown egg.

Aww....I bet, Pac. Best of luck to you with your chicks. They sure have grown fast and look happy as can be.
