Dawn in the chicken dome
I've changed the dynamic in the greenhouse these days by moving the little hens out of the teenager house and into the big coop. Every night I reach into the teenager house, gropw around and pull out the four hens and Yin and Yang, put them in the big coop and leave the roosters.Hopefully they'll learn to go in the big coop by themselves soon. Then I leave the roosters locked up until last in the morning, after the hens have had priority seating at breakfast. The boys have an entirely different attitude, now that most of the birds are already about their business when they come out. They don't act so important.Yin and Yang and a young white hen aren't sure about how to get out of the coop in the morning either.Mushroom run! She's got a mushroom and just wants to eat it in peace. (The lads are still locked up in the frat house there) A few guineas on their fave hay tower.Brown Bonnet is outside now, in the Chickery 2.0. She already has an avid suitor. I'll be your baby daddy! At night she goes in the box with the brood, and we close the box and carry it into the house, and then back in the morning. The chicks are still so little, I don't want it to be too much of a strain on her to keep them warm.They're under her here, but all you can see are a couple little feet sticking out.
