A person who has hearing within the normal range can hear sounds that have frequencies between 20 and 20,000 Hz. The most important sounds we hear every day are in the 250 to 6,000 Hz range. Speech includes a mix of low and high frequency sounds:
We've had chickens for several years however we have started a new flock of 12 chicks. They are 6-8 weeks old with their adult feathers. We put them outside earlier this week in a separate space (an enclosed rabbit hutch with three solid sides) from the adult chicken.deally, chicks will not require a heat source when moving from brooder to coop. If the temperatures outside remain above 65Â°F and the chicks are at least 5 weeks old, they can probably move into the coop without supplemental heat.
1 In order to get a dozen per week, buy 3 to 4 chickens. 2  Make sure your coop size is large enough to accommodate them. 3  There should be 3 to 4 square feet (0.9 to 1.2 square meters) of space per chicken inside the coop and 10 square feet (3 square meters) of space per chicken outside the coop.. Find out if it is legal to raise chickens on your land. Many cities have ordinances against raising chickens in city lines.
