It depends on how you do it and what your circumstances are. You can put them in a Chicken Hoop House between 1 week and 8 weeks. It will very depending on where you search. If you have a shelter for them with a heat lamp in it (preferably red) then they can go outside within the first to second week.

Chickens are actually very strong animals and usually people do not give them enough credit. A full grown chicken can withstand temps of -30F to -40F without a heat light or floor heater.

If you have a secure Chicken Hoop there is nothing to worry about just remember to have a heat lamp and you will see they will actually grow faster, stronger and be very active. Remember they need to have the nesting box blocked off until you get the first egg so they learn to sleep on a roost as well as hang out outside and play during the day (and probably at night), this is so they use the nesting box to lay eggs not to hang out in/. It will be easier on you as you will not need to clean their nest constantly they will do their business somewhere else.

Make sure there is plenty for them to do and discover such as large rocks, logs, branches, a compost pile and some roosts. the more they have to play with and discover the happier they will be. It is recommended to change things around every few weeks ( I like to change their scene every other day or so by adding some things or adjusting the stuff you already provided and even flipping over rocks so they can dig and eat the bugs that will surely be located underneath.

I would also put the food on one side and the water on the opposite side to keep them running around and active. The more active your chickens are and the more you pay attention to them the more they will produce for you!

How do you teach a dog to jump through a hoop?

Have someone with you at first, make sure your dog knows how to sit and stay. With the one person holding the hoop, have your dog sit and stay about three feet from the hoop, go to the other side of hoop, with a treat, and call your dog(make sure you start the hoop close to the ground, if he/she tries to go around the hoop say no, if your dog is too shy to jump through the hoop you can show he/she by going through the hoop yourself. Good luck!!!
