Chick Freedom

Silkie Sue lead her chicks outside today.  We found them about 100 feet away from the coops.

They're small enough to slip through the fence

Thirsty little boogers

They weren't able to follow Silkie Sue back into the coop because it's too high, so after she went in and they wouldn't follow her, she came back out and nestled down with them in the corner of the chicken run.  We had to spend some time catching them to get them all back into the coop.

And now for a cute video of chicks learning to find bugs....
