Inside the Coop

 What happens inside the chicken coop?

Chickens really only spend time in the coop when they are laying eggs, when they are sleeping at night, or when they are trying to get shelter from wet weather. It's not good for chickens or people to stay inside too long and be cooped up! That's why Ruby and her flock spend time outside scratching and foraging for bugs and roaming the farm. (Can you find Ruby in the photos below?)

Even in the winter, chickens like to forage!
