Remember those cute little cotton balls with legs? Yup: just 3 months ago they arrived, combined weighing less than air. And now they're huge! And they even have their own Corningwear set! How's that for grown-up?
We still have 8 weeks to go until POL (point of lay). And they're still growing, though we find it harder to see ourselves -- others who see them no more than once a week can see it clearly, though.
Due to the lack of rain, we're still getting blossom end rot on some varieties of tomatoes. That's what you see in the bowl on the right -- they looooove tomatoes. We do too!
They've pulled escape acts the last three days out of 4. The new, extended pasture we made them (photo at bottom) -- aka "the chicken trampoline" -- is attached to the tractor with industrial strength velcro, which comes with an adhesive backing that doesn't seem to stand up to the heat, humidity and drizzle we've been having. We love to see them on the lawn and garden for those minutes between finding them and getting them back in the tractor -- very natural. And they're having a great time.
