The young crew is beginning to live in harmony! I'm tickled pink when I return home to see the chickens enjoying what amounts to be 1 acre of bushes, grasses, stumps and bugs and doing what chickens do best. They are not scratching only in dirt, although they have found the best spots to have a dust bath. They are filling themselves up on lots of good natural protein and deliciousness, foraging around and thoroughly enjoying life. The dogs are watching with eyes closed half the day and definitely know that it is in their best interest to leave well enough alone. It is a peaceful harmony but one that I am yet to fully trust. I won't leave them out together for long periods of time unsupervised but training is working. I know Mr. Fox is still waiting for his moment to come, snatch and run but we haven't seen him for a while.
