They're learning to fly?!

The chicks are doing great and they are growing FAST!
A few days ago I had a mini heart attack when I went into the laundry room to check on the chicks and to my horror there were only 5 instead of 6!  Martha had somehow flown out of the box and was just chilling in the laundry room.  Thankfully she didn't go behind the dryer, because there is a mousetrap back there! EEK!
I scooped her up, put her back in and put a baby gate on top of the box.  I didn't Have anything else to keep them in, but the gate worked in a pinch.


I came in later and Martha was up on top of the waterer.  I'm so glad that I put the gate up there.  If she had flown out again and hurt herself I (and the kids) would have been so devastated!  I tried to get a photo of her up there, but the flash scared her.  So here's the best I could do:
POOP!!
Yep...poop is the only proof I've got.
