I did some coop maintenance this morning while everybody had their morning run. It always amuses me so much because the Big Girls love when I do a tidy up. The sand is raked free of debris. The feeder is full. The water tubs are scrubbed & fresh. The run is raked & today I moved the biggest log so the Littles should be out of sight @ feed time & there is a grub'n'bug fest in the big coop. The Big Girls promptly invaded as soon as I gave them access but the Littles have opted for some time in the little coop. I think that's fair. A bit of a break from each other is never a bad thing. And everybody got a watermelon treat. It's the 1st time the Littlies have shown much interest in treats but they hoed in like troopers!

No doubt the run will be a shambles in no time again but it's nice to know a clean up job is so appreciated.
