Out of the Brooder

Jake and I officially let the birds out of their brooder box. One brave bird had escaped and others were sitting on top of the waterer contemplating. So we opened up the front of the box and let them have a bit more freedom, not enough to let them out into the fenced yard yet. I will probably give them at least 1-2 more weeks. (We have to finish putting up chicken wire along the bottom so we don't have to chase them back in.) They seem to be enjoying their new found space. There are a few that seem to like staying by the door so we have to open it gently. It won't be long little ones. It won't be long.
