Haze

Today's hazy sky is creating a welcome break from the hot temperatures we've had in the Mile High City this week.  The chickens are enjoying this less-hot hot day.  The heat has been so intense that the coop's been unbearable, especially for the little girls who are constantly being sent to the corner by the big girls.  So even though my intention was to keep them all locked up together until all of their 'issues' were worked out, I've had to let them free range.  It's been a lot of fun to watch. 

These old girls are comfortable as a threesome.

Although they are missing this one, who is still in the sick bay.  She's not eating or drinking much.  I've been bringing out a lot of her favorite treats and managed to get her to eat a little here and there.  Lou is still under close observation. 

BB's been checking in on Lou.  She looks all caring and everything, but she really wants Lou's special treats. 

The new chickens continue to stick together like glue and even venture into the old chickens' small flock now and again.  The old chickens' chasing is getting to be less and less already, on only day two of integration.  This makes me happy.

Here's Murphy.

Here's Jim.

Here's Murphy and Jim.

It's been a pleasure to be home for most of the week, except for when I venture out for a few errands and daily bike rides and walks.   My main focus has been on Red Door Coop and the chickens.  I hope to travel next week and after that am heading back to school and need to get the hens comfortable together before those things can happen.
