Our little ones are going on 2 weeks old now and had a nice little 20 minute outdoor session while I was cleaning out their brooder. The definitely seemed to enjoy it.

 

 

This is Allie...AKA Alpha who we believe to be a red sex link...whom I interrupted while she was attempting to dust bath on rock hard red clay lol.

This is our Allie...AKA Alpha who was supposed to be a production red but alas I think is a red sex link that ended up a bin over at the TSC lol.

 

 

Allie in front with Ginger and Rosemary in the back our production reds...and 2 of our buff orps who I can no longer tell apart lol who is either Nugget, Attie, or Sunshine.

Yea they def love the outdooors! I used a large laundry basket to cover them while I was cleaning and then when i was finished I lifted the basket. They are scared cause its new and honestly keep close together near you. Actually a couple of the buff girls would climb up in my lap to snuggle down lol. Our yard is fenced in as well so i figured they would only get so far tongue.png
