Mostly about my backyard chickens. (Boring, I know), but there are a lot of us out here. Mine are only kept as pampered pets. I could eat a neighbor's chicken, but not MINE. There may be a comment on current events only if I get riled up enough. And there will always be a cartoon or a joke to cheer us. I promise to try my very best to respond to comments. Now I have to figure out how this blogger thingy works....

Out of the pen!
Yesterday was the first time Maude and Sophia felt grass under their feet! They come to me when I call them now, so I thought it would be safe to let them out of the pen for a wee bit.
At first, they just stayed right next to the coop:
Then as they got a litter braver, they wandered into the grass in the middle of the backyard:
Laverne and Shirley wanted nothing to do with them, but Charlie stayed nearby:
When it started to rain, they all followed me back to the pen. It was a very good first outing!
Can you imagine what that must have felt like :))
ReplyDeleteIt was so much fun to watch them try to scratch it,. as if it was dirt or sand. I think I enjoyed it more than they did! :o)
