Awwwhh! So cute! Love it when they are still fuzzy butts and so small. My latest brood is just over 2 weeks old and I can't take them out right now - way too cold. Supposed to snow tomorrow even! Enjoy those beauties.

I'm new to chickens as of last weekend, have 8 little ones of various ages. I was hoping to take them outside for a while this weekend but it's too cold here!

I agree.
Last night I had a 2 week old chick get out and ran off into the woods.
It came back this morning and is with mom again.
It was 36 last night - no ill effects.
