And here they are....
The last time you may have seen our little friends, they were about a day old. Over a month later, they have been moved to their brand new home.
The barn that we've turned into the chicken coop!
A few pics to go through...
First and second pics are the side of the barn that we've covered with hay and put a wire fence to keep them on that side of the barn. Let's be honest, that doesn't always work because a few of them have already found ways to fly over it lol
Third pic is just a quick look at our garden in early June. Things are growing nicely :)
Fourth pic is the Nest cam we set up in the barn. My wife REALLY wants to keep an eye on them...I personally think this is a bit much lol
Fifth pic is the girls getting used to coming in and out of their coop. Trust me, it's not as easy as you may think to stick them back in at night...
Sixth pic is one of our Rhode Island Reds, taking the top roosting spot in the coop...For now!
And finally the seventh pic is my craftsmanship on full display. As two of the chickens seem to really enjoy the small perch I made for them.
All in all, the experience has been quite rewarding. Next step is to see in month 4, if they start laying those precious eggs!
Crossing fingers :)
