so we were working out in the yard yesterday morning and I mentioned to my wife we should let the cornish out of the tractor to free range, didn't think anything of it, later in the afternoon I went in the house to grab some water and came out and she was removing the tractor

so I let the dogs out to see how they would be

everything was cool, so I moved their feed tray and water under the cherry tree so they had some shade

and then it happened

the poor babies spent the rest of the afternoon hanging out under the raspberry bushes, but still got attacked by the rhode island reds all afternoon, the brahma was totally fine though, but they ended up back into the tractor by the end of the night for their safety

lol true, I was surprised by their reaction, they have left all the other birds alone and the cornish have been in the yard for almost 2 weeks now, oh well, they will be leaving in the next couple weeks
