This morning when I opened up the little coop Apricot was first out. The new girls now come out straight away in the morning and head to the food dish.
This morning when I opened the coop
I added a bamboo perch to the new shelter and put Apricot on it to try it out.
I put Apricot on the perch
She wasn’t at all sure about that. She wobbled a bit then managed to turn herself around and jump down. She was out of there at speed. I am not sure the new girls are going to get the hang of the shelter any time soon.
When I put them to bed tonight Apricot ran in to the shelter, had a buzz round, then ran back out again. I think she was a bit confused but at least she now knows that she can go in and out again. I am not sure these girls will ever use it but I know the rest of the flock would love to get in and have a scratch around.

I love how the new girls have a little audience from the other side of the wire!! 🙂 xx
I wondered if anyone would notice that. Rusty and Freckles keen to see if the new girls were having anything different to them. xx
They proberly just need some time, they are going to look such a
pretty little flock, when they all get together.
They will be a pretty flock. I hope to start the integration process over the next few days. I am a bit nervous though, even though I have done this many times. I think added more seramas to existing seramas may be more difficult than adding them to the bigger girls.
