Finally! The little chicks moved into their new home! Here you can see how they were taken from their box into the chicken coop that my husband built. One of them, "Tessa", is always the most adventurous one. She was sitting rightaway on the roost. On the second pic. you can see our son how he pretends to get the eggs from the nesting boxes.
We really do have happy chickens, they seem happy in their new spacious home! Tomorrow I will show you the outside!
Endlich! Die kleinen Huehner sind in ihr neues Heim umgezogen! Hier sieht man wie sie aus der Kiste in das neue Huehnerhaus getragen werden, das mein Mann gebaut hat. Eine von ihnen, "Tessa", ist immer am mutigsten. Gleich sass sie auf einer Huehnerstange! Auf dem zweiten Foto sieht man unseren Sohn wie er macht, als wuerde er Eier aus der Legebox holen. Wir haben wirklich glueckliche Huehner, sie scheinen zufrieden mit ihrem neuen, geraeumigen Haus! Morgen zeige ich euch die Aussenansicht.

Very cool! We thought about having chickens once, but it never got any further than a thought. I'll have to come out and visit your chicken sometime.
Happy Chickens
""do they lay the HAppy
Easter Egg... ""
our friend has Chickens too and the eggs are lovely and the Chickens are happy too...
I like your photos. They bring back a lot of memories to me. My mother and I had an old chicken house when I was small during World War II. She got her peeps through the mail from Sears and Roebuck catalog. When the mail arrived at the store we would go get it and it was a box with round holes and the chickens we order were in the box.
We just put them in a small pen of chicken wire for several days, sometimes in our kitchen where it was warm and mom fed them small cracked corn and water.
Then they eventaully got stronger and were big enough to move to the chicken house. Our chicken house had a flat wooden board along one wall. And about every foot apart was a nest box for the chicken to get into to lay her egg. They really get to clucking when they lay an egg.
Then we went to the nest boxes and picked up the eggs laid that day.
We had no roosts. The chickens just laid or stayed on the board between the nest boxes or on the floor that was covered with straw if we could afford it.
I like your photo. What memories.
Such an exciting time at the little farm in the woods, Love it!!
They look happy!
Toll, echt!
Don't go in the chicken house with your toenails painted red!
I love the picture of Tessa. She is always so interested in everything. Exploring.
Happy chickens, lovely son.
What darling chickens...and their new home is wonderful.
In California they say "Foster Farms" chickens are "happy" chickens, but I don't see how, when they are going to market!!
Love you post!
Looks like a loud house to me. :)
What a cute bunch!! Great housing!! Great job!!
Mit Interesse verfolge ich weiter den Werdegang Eurer Hühner.
Es ist interessant und zugleich lustig.
Das sind wirklich glückliche Hühner, von denen Ihr glückliche Eier bekommen werdet.
