Chirping
You're not the only one!!
Last night was our girls first night in the new coop I've made in the back of our shed. We are separating out our 3 extra roos and they are getting to stay in the old coop which is smaller, while the girls and tiny Danny get the upgrade. I didn't know that chickens could get that mad about moving!! To top off their indignity we have the new chicks in the front half of the shed where the girls can see/hear them but not reach them. There was some serious screaming and flapping at the door over that!
I thought maybe they would be happier running out in the yard after hearing their grumbling all day. Penny flew over the net fence to go see the boys back at the other coop when my back was turned! So they're all locked back up for a few days until they calm down and realize this is their new home. It's hard not to give in, but Penny ruined it for everyone. If they're not going to behave, they'll just have to stay in!
