Baby Chicks-1 Month Old

Last night marked another milestone for the baby chicks. They spent their first night in the dark. We let them get all cozy in the coop and then shut the heat lamp off for the first night. They cried a little bit but not too much. At 1 month old, they are fully feathered now, love perching on the bars we put in the run and are eating bits and pieces of table scraps. From the looks of the yard they are in I would say they are also learning how to scratch up the dirt to look for bugs. It has been fun watching them develop over the last month. For the next couple of months they will mostly change in their overall size. I think they will be excited about being on a full grassy area here in a couple of days.
