They are doing well for the most part. I do worry about the girl, Gypsy (short for Gypsophila). She is smaller than the boys and does not seem to be able to digest as well. She is not as playful and never wags her tail when she is drinking her bottle of momma's milk. Time will tell.
They have been moved around because of overfeeding, bullying, underfeeding. I have learned a lot about having a herd set up and we are continuing to make improvements through trial and error.
As of right now they are in the fenced garden area. (No, I do not have my garden going yet this year-oh the woes of the working wanna be farmgirl!!)

| New places in the garden to explore; good thing nobody cleaned up this winter! |

The old rooster house in the garden will be an excellent shelter for the babies
until a more permanent home is made |
I am hoping the babies will help clean up the grass and briers that the roosters did not. Shelter, sun, shade, food and water. Hopefully everything they need until they are sold! So, any takers? Just let me know if we need to band them/castrate them for you!
