Hard to see, but all 11 chicks are in there! They have been playing for the last 2 days, but we bring them back in at night!

Painted the ceiling blue, so that the chickens wouldn't feel like they were in a dungeon. Also, someone said that mud dobber wasps would not make houses on a ceiling if it is blue. We'll see!
