New Chooks-first time out!

Hi everybody,
Just wanted to thank everybody for all of their advice. We have had our chickens for a week and let them out of the run for the first time. They had a great time dust bathing and eating bugs. Hope you enjoy the photos!

Awww! That's great. They looked happy. The GLW's have apparently found a natural camoflauge area in the wood chips. I almost missed them in one of the pictures.

Is the other chicken a buff orpington? Did you buy them locally?

We have two gold laced wyandottes and one buff orpington. They are growing so fast and we are having so much fun with them. Our daughter just loves them. She sits in the rocker chair at her window and points at them and squeals. She loves to pet and chase them, we are working on the latter. I did buy them locally from a very kind breeder of ducks, chickens, turkeys, and goats.
