All the little ones are out in their coop tonight. It was so much fun watching them scratch around in the pine shavings and then try to see how far they could run and fly. They just have a small roost for now (and they still can't quite get on it, but I think that will change in a day or two), but will have their larger, permanent roost in the next week or two. They will also have a run to go out in very soon. Here are some of the promised pictures. The first one shows the whole gang, including the two new Ameracaunas from Suzann at Huckleberry Farm. This was the best I could get of all nine of them!
These two were checking out dried mealworms for the first time
Little Nina decided that when you get tired, a human's leg is a good place to take a rest
They were all soooo curious as to what was happening outside. They are looking out of the hole that will eventually be their pop out door. Right know, we have hardware cloth over it to keep them inside.
While we were working, we gave them some time outside. We got to watch Lucy take her first dustbath
She got zero peace during her bath since the others wanted to eat the sand off of her!
Here is Lucy, our Silkie, maybe Silkie mix. Whatever she is, she is cute!
