Babies' Day Out

Today was a red-letter day in the life and times of the chicklets:  The Big Coop is done!

The fence panels are up and reinforced.  A little chicken door was built, and a ramp installed.  A soft breeze blew in, coaxing them out to explore.  The chicklets wasted no time in hopping out down the ramp to check out the great world that had been waiting for them.


Not everyone was quite as enthusiastic, however.


"Yaaaaaaghh!  The sky is so BIG!!!"

A few jitters aside, all the explorers seemed to agree that life outside the shed was something pretty great.  Wads of grass were devoured, dandelions chomped, small creatures chased through the leafy wilderness.  It was like watching a herd of velociraptors swarm over Lost Island, I tell you! 



Well, if velociraptors were feathered, weighed about a half pound, and peeped.
