All the chickies look healthy and are visibly growing. Their outermost wing feathers are coming in little by little and they're taller.
Today they moved into a larger house, longer to allow room for a roosting rail. I came up with this rail setup for the last flock and it works well. The picture shows the setup. To begin with, I lay the three-hole bricks flat and the stick in the middle holes. As the chicks get bigger, I tip the bricks upright and slot the stick into the middle hole. When they outgrow the container and move into the garage, they're big enough to use scrap lumber. Until then, this is an easy solution.

Chicks with bricks come. Chicks with sticks come.
