Feathers on Fridays: Saturday edition

Hi, this is Neatnik, guest blogging for Mommy again. We went to Pipey's place last Saturday to visit the chickens and Mommy took some pictures.

Their new coop is really big. It has three levels. The nesting area is in the back and it goes across the whole coop. They get to it from the ground by going up a long ramp. They have a roosting shelf that they seem to like. When one chicken goes on it, other ones join her. See?

Ash and Elle switched and Red came out to say hello
Elle's a little camera shy

Daddy delivered the chickens to Pipey only a week before these pictures were taken. Now they look much more hennish. Elle is rounder and had much more white. Ash has some more white, too. I think Dee and Emma especially look hennish. Red looked basically the same to me - just a bit bigger.

Emma seems to like stalking bugs.

Emma: still the smallest
but she stands up for herself!

Pipey has a dog who really wanted to play with the chickens. She wasn't allowed in the coop but she kept running around trying to get a good look at them. The chickens just ignored her.

I think the chickens are happy at Pipey's place.
