days old chicks roosting in tree with mom
Our take
Ever witnessed a bunch of days-old chicks roosting high in a tree with their mom? It’s a sight that’s both heartwarming and a tad bewildering! Despite having a cozy coop waiting for them, half of our feathered friends prefer the thrill of a nighttime adventure up in the branches. But fear not! These little ones have always felt safe among the leaves, snuggling up to their mama as the sun dips below the horizon. Watching them cozy up in the treetops brings a whimsical charm to our farm life, proving that sometimes, a tree can feel just as secure as a coop. Who knew that tree-dwelling chicks could add such delightful chaos to our chicken-keeping journey?
