Chickens.

The girls are settling in nicely. Still very skittish when I go on run. They took themselves to bed last night at about 9:30, but failed to get on the roost bar. Two were on the floor and three in the nestbox. I need to put a post on freecycle for a couple of logs to make it a bit more interesting.


I can only tell 1 apart from the others as she is more brown around the neck. I need to get some leg rings.

Excellent! Really happy for you and they are gorgeous girls

 

Hello @rustyroots your coop & run look fantastic, well done you!
Your girls are very pretty, I hope it won't be long before they lay you some eggs

 

Girls enjoying the sun and having a dust bath.



No eggs yet, but their comb and wattles are reddening and one has started to present herself when I go in. Hopefully not long to wait
