Mark and I let the girls out a little earlier this evening just because we could because we had nothing else to do. Mark took them a little treat tonight of green beans and a half of a tomato.
The tomato was a big hit because it was on the straw.
The green beans not so much because they were in the snow. The girls don't like snow on their feet at all. Dory would walk from bare ground spot to bare ground spot to get anywhere.
There was lots of bumping into each other because everyone wanted to walk on the fence instead of the snow.
They love to scratch. Even better when they find some cracked corn that Mark threw out in the yard.
Crispy doesn't like the snow either...
...she flies wherever she wants to go.
Now Sunny could care less. I'm guess by her size that she might just be the warmest bird we have. She is so fat!
RayJeana could take it or leave it.

Queen of the coop.
But she did manage to share a little arm space with Ethel.
Ethel got as high as she could go...roosting on the top of the chair. I still haven't seen any of those chocolate eggs she is supposed to be laying. Maybe I should feed her a Hershey bar so she can see what she needs to work up to.
Her white legs were starting to turn a little pink. We decided to put them away so she could sit on them and get warm.

Judy, Judy, Judy
Mark got out the rake and started raking up a pile of leaves so the girls could find the green grass. They loved it. Then when I threw in some little bits of feed...they couldn't get enough.
Somebody's got some big ole feet!
