Free range at last

The chickens started out in the small cage Zig made with a heated light. Then we moved them to the actual chicken coup but covered the hole that allows them to leave and go outside into the fenced area. Two weeks ago we moved the piece of wood and they started to venture to the outside portion of the coup. And finally this week, they got a taste of freedom when we let them all out. They are now able to forage for their own food. They stay in the back part of our property for the most part, though there are a couple who stray a bit further. They have been pretty good about going back in at night where they still huddle together in a big dogpile in the corner to sleep. Sela is also good at rounding the chickens up in a hurry. They're getting harder for the kids to catch though that doesn't stop them from trying!
