Flying chicks!

I was out in the sunroom where the chicks are and I heard a racket. I looked over to where the chicks are and one had flown up to the top ring of the kiddie pool. Oh my, it is time to put the net over the pool. Otherwise we will have chicks all over the house. Chicks in the kitchen, chicks in the bathtub, chicks in the living room. Totally unacceptable! So, on goes the net. Now I have seen a couple of the eyeing the net, I wonder if they are planning their next move. Hmmmm. Tune in for the next adventure!

There has been an escape!


Hubby went to run and errand and forgot to close the gate to the yard. Oops. I discovered it when I took the little dogs out to go potty. After counting, I noticed some of our big chickens were missing. I went out and saw two escapees by the side of the fence. I chased them down and got them to come back into the yard. Hubby got back and we walked all around the yard to see if we had any more birds hiding in the trees or grass surrounding our place. We didn't see any, but went back inside to count again. Whew, we found all 16 of our big chickens. Just goes to show that you have to secure your yard.


Also, here is a new picture of the chicks inside.
