We’ve been letting the new flock of little buffs out to play in the grass as we transition them to the big pen and they are loving every minute of it!

They get sooo excited and practically leap into our hands as we gather them from the brooder because they know what’s coming.

Once they’re outside, they run around like chickens with their.. well, you know. 🙂

Yesterday one of them found a leaf, which she thought was a worm and all of a sudden it was like Christmas!

They were all so very curious about my phone.

I’m pretty excited over this flock because I just love buff orpingtons. They are soo friendly and curious and easy to keep. They also make for great dual-purpose birds (meat and eggs) for those of us who keep backyard chickens for more than just pets.

I just have to refrain from naming them… 🙂
