moving the coop again...

After a few hot sunny days we realized the coop's location within the fenced garden didn't provide much shade for the hens, except sitting right under the coop. So we moved it over to a spot within the shade of the cherry tree next to our lawnmower shed.






Meanwhile...

and then there were 2

Penny & Sunny - the smallest and runtiest but also the feistiest & sassiest.




Best buds, cuddling up together in their favorite spot.

this is the chickens' favorite hang-out spot, especially on rainy days:


Sunny & Ernestina (named for Ernest Borgnine, by Tim of course)

good morning, girls

(still haven't gotten a handle on how to best photograph these girls) (That's Sunny standing up front)

completion of the chicken coop!

their first meal in their new pad
