In their new home chowing down on the food and grass.

Question; should I be giving them some pullet food as well?

My opinion, for what it's worth - agree with @Aussie-Chookmum & @Ponypoor - grower will be good for the young ones and the higher protein will be good for the naked-back australorp (Penguin?) to grow new feathers. No extra calcium in the feed because the littles aren't laying, but eggshells & oyster on the side for Penguin to get. Sardines for her will give her calcium and protein.

I made a little buffet station in the Chicken Palace today. One each for oyster shell, crushed egg shells, and grit.

Honestly, this would have taken one quarter of the time without Dotty’s help.
She is constantly under, on top of, or attacking my feet!

Porch Cam

Porch can is up and running. As @ChicoryBlue said, zip tie and a board. Here is the fix. I had to do holes in the base and zip tie it to the board.

I then flipped on the camera and recorded Betty search for an alternate roost so she doesn't have to sleep with Phyllis. She gets in some serious exercise!

I just love the view from this camera. I think this was way overdue.
