I went out at about ten o’clock last night and put the chicks on the perch.
I put the chicks on the perch late evening
By morning only Sienna (in the middle) was still on the perch
I closed the lid quickly to see if they would stay put. I then opened it a little to take a peak and Sienna was still on the perch but the other two had moved back down in the box.
I waited a few minutes and took another peek. Sienna was still on the perch. I wondered if she would still be there in the morning.
I went out just after five o’clock this morning and instead of opening the ramp to the chicks coop I lifted the lid a little and had a peek. Sienna was still on the perch.
Hurrah! It’s a start. I hope that the others will follow her. I will try again tonight. I feel like we are getting somewhere a bit at a time.

The chicks are really blossoming! xx
They are. They have been much more adventuress today. xx
Thats good, I am sure the others will soon cotton on.
The next night both Sienna and Blue perched and I thought we were getting there but last night none of them perched. Oh well, I suppose they will do it in their own time.
