Chicken Update

The chickens are now about 8 weeks old.  And they are getting big!  They are now each about the size of a football.

The stay locked up in their coop at night, but in the morning we let them out to free range all day.  Here they are at 7:00 a.m. begging to be let out.

For the most part they are really comfortable around us.  Spanky (the white one) will let us pick her up without much fuss.  The darkest one, Honey, is the only one that runs away when we get too close.  The other 2, Peanut (the light brown one) and The Red Baron (the reddish one), let us get close but don’t really like to be picked up.
