I feel pretty stupid. I just realized you said right, not left. I don’t know why I read left, I’m sorry. The one on the right is Os, she’s an Easter egger.

No biggie, they are both gorgeous girls anyways.

She’s doing good! She’s adjusting quite nicely to her new coop.

We were expecting rain last night so yesterday we got a more solid roof on Harriets run. I’ve been using beaderboard (aka: Wonderboard) on my last couple small runs & so far it’s working great.

I went on quest for more brussle sprout starts went to a Nursery in Chehalis
Ma and Pop style was able to get two 4 packs ..I do not have a green house now so bought starts but something is eating them going to use chicken wire or hardware cloth

Today the chicks escaped the dog pen and the run while I was inside napping. Fortunately they didn’t wander far, nothing got them, and where good and let me collect them. It was my fault though since I forgot to recover the top of the pen after giving them last night’s peas and a bit of pineapple, so they jumped out. So to make sure that didn’t happen again I got some bird netting and wrapped the bottom half of the run and used the dog pen on the door side so I can step over. One problem fixed. I also graduated them to a hanging metal waterer under their coop, figured it would stay cleaner then the dog dish I’ve been using.
Lastly I have an armadillo, who walked within two feet of me yesterday evening. So that solves the mystery of the den that popped up about three weeks ago and an the three am digging at my metal sheeting under my window this weekend.

It sounds like they are happy outside!
