Chicks..... Now Chickens!
I had no idea how fast baby chicks could grow!! Our little chicks are all grown up! Troye worked hard and got the co-op ready to move them into! I love the way it looks!! We still have some finishing touches to do, but it is functional for the chicks for now and I am sure they are happier with more room!! We have also been letting the free range during the day and they go everywhere! They also will come right up to you to see if you brought them a treat, so fun! We found some surprises they had hidden in the woods! The first discovery contained 17 eggs!!!! We have no idea how many chickens were laying there or how long! The second contained 24 eggs!!! It was so crazy to find that many! So for now, we are going to confine them to the coop so that they can learn to lay in the nesting boxes! We also moved the big chickens over so all 14 chickens are now housed together. I am not sure they all like that but hopefully they will learn to like it!
