These chickens are growing very quickly. They're lots bigger than when they came home. Five or six times the size? I should have weighed them that first day. But being bigger means they can stay outside for longer, and do more exploring.
Here's Debbie sitting on my knee. Look at all those feathers all over her back! But they still have chick puff on their heads.
After a nice long playtime outside with the compost heap, they came in and immediately ran to the feeder.
And because it's easy to forget how tiny they once were, I give you in contrast, this photo of Liza and Debbie at the feeder the day after we brought them home:
