Cloudy and the babies are still doing great. She's such an awesome mom. I removed the dog crate today from the coop in hopes that they can all sleep together peacefully. So far when I've had them out, things have gone well with Cloudy, the chicks and the others.

Here are a few pictures from Cloudy and the kids free ranging today:
