    Checkout the new roost for the run…

    The last pic is of the one I had in there originally. They seemed to like the old one ok but I never saw all six ladies using it. Usually 2-3 and maybe 4 at the most and I didn’t like the idea of them maybe not having enough room and some being left out.

    Thankyou. I added some photos. They aren’t chicks anymore. Tweedy and Wynona , which are the shot-callers of the group (we were almost certain they were roosters for a month or two), actually started laying a few days ago. Tweedy is the one in the only solo photo.
