Finally! When I did my last check on the chickens before bed, they were all roosting! None on the ground, hurray! I had to keep the light to a minimum, so they didn’t come ask for mealworms, so briefly shone enough light from the flashlight to get photographic evidence.

I will wait for awhile before trying the poop catcher, though. Deep litter method it will be for the time being. (I turn over the pine shavings to mix in the droppings every morning, rather than scooping them out.)
