The great outdoors

It was a lovely warm spring day yesterday, so the ladies got to check out their future digs for the first time. We’ll put straw down in the outdoor run before they actually move in, but they didn’t mind pecking around to see what they could find in the dirt.

They were peeping up a storm when we carried them out to the backyard in their brooder (you would think they were being plucked alive, or something). When we let them out into the run, they clustered together, looking at us like, “What the what?”

That didn’t last long, though, before they realized, “Hey, it’s roomy out here!” Silly ladies.
