New Babies

Yesterday I decided to let the new chickens have a taste of freedom again. I've made a small enclosure of chicken wire so that they can enjoy some freedom and still be safe from the bigger girls. Well that didn't work for long. When I looked outside they had 'flown the coop' and were happily grazing on the lawn! The big girls just ignored them!

So today I let them all out together. They were fine - Rosie has taken a shine to the top of the eglu run. Their wings have not been clipped so they can fly out of reach of the big girls if needs be. And I think their voices are starting to break. Rosie clucked at me today instead of cheeping!
