#1 I have 6 chickens in a fairly large hen house with multiple attached runs. I want to let them roam around the yard but as a NEW CHICKEN OWNER I have NO IDEA how fast they are, how hard they are to catch, it they will stay close by etc
#2 can chicks REALLY look like full grown chickens in 6 weeks? This is one of our smaller hens... UNBELIEVABLE !!

Ok... 3 questions. The chickens are loving grapes and the tops of Strawberries. Is there such a thing as too many 'treats'. I am giving them approximately 2 a piece 2 times a day.
 
Q #1: Make sure your chickens know YOU are the one giving them food. Like every time you come, make up some sort of "call" and they'll eventually associate that call with food on the ground, and you.

Q #2: Yes, depending on the breed they can look somewhat mature in only a few weeks! :)

Q #3: And those treats sound fine twice a day! Perfect time to practice your "call" lol.
