pics of chicks















While I am still working on the final version of the chicken run , the chicks have been busy growing up. They wake up as soon as the sun comes up and stay in the coop till about 7.00 am . Then the door opens up for a day in the garden. They eat a little , play a little , take a nap and repeat until dusk. They might visit the coop a couple of times a day for some food ( their feeder remains inside the coop to keep away other birds) and to lay an egg. When the sun goes down , they go inside and rest on their roosting pole. The doors closes automatically to keep predators out.
It's a hard life.

  1. The chicks are so big! Which one is Peckorina? Is it the salt and pepper one?
