above, better pic of the girls. Once again, we have a camera shy one who is ducking behind her sisters.
I've heard people talking about having to put their chickens on the roost but this was not our case. The slick, linoleum floor sort of startled them, so, within the first five minutes they were climbing up the ramps. Within 10 minutes, they were all on the roost. Surprising to me because up to this point....they haven't had a roost.
