A small update for the weekend, well, kind of a milestone but nothing HUGE.
Today I put the finishing touches on the larger coop, and we moved the first six birds in. They seemed very happy, but we had to go out for the afternoon.
There was much running, flapping and excitement! I threw a small amount of scratch around and they seemed to like the more open space.
Here's Lucky in the foreground.
Came home just after sunset, hoping to find them roosting, but they were huddled in the corner outside. Picked them up and moved them onto the roost. We will be happy if they snuggle inside the coop for now.
Will get some more shots of them when I can spend a bit of time with them, they all pretty much look like small mature birds now, except Milo (RIR roo) who is still lagging a bit with feathering.
Finally, a shot of Alicia and I at my brothers weeding yesterday, teen sweet still together 16 years later.
