They look like they are really loving all of the space!

I go to bed at night and I ask myself, did I make sure everything is latched, chicken pen, rabbit hutches, pig pen...I've even gotten up and gone out to check...I'm a bit paranoid about it...lol!

Lol I am too! Tonight I checked three times! We fenced off all the walls today and hubs and I put in two corner roosting bars for them. We also bought larger waterers for everyone with summer around the corner we'll need them. Now to get my kids to stop lying about if they did their morning chores .

Same here, lol
I have to double check all the doors every night or else I’ll spend the whole night thinking Did I close that ?

I'm just gonna have to follow my kids and make sure they're not cutting corners at chore time.... I loose too much sleep already don't need this on top of it!

My babies enjoying their little roost! If one more hopped on they would have been sitting on the ground...

So cute!!! We made ours out of 1x2s and had same issue, we cut a third one and attached it so if they jump up it supports the center. Never thought chicks were so heavy

The one my husband made is much sturdier, but the diameter is just a touch to large, they are starting to use it some, but they still prefer the ones I put in...silly chicks!

I keep forgetting to check BYC out! I'm going to have to set a ding dong on my phone! I'll have a read now and see what everyone has been getting up to!

Everything has been going fine! I've hatched out my first silkie batch of the year and a second one is on its way. The four LF chicks that I have hatched on 13th March have all turned out to be boys so I will probably do another batch of them later on in the year. Francis had been reserved but the three brown males are all for sale still. Dave and her babies are doing well. So yeah, in general everything it going fine!
