The ladies are home!

I so love reading posts like yours...you'll get such pleasure from your new girls. The excitement of going out to see them never really diminishes as they're such delightful little characters and so funny when they run over when they see you coming! I have some that won't perch so they live in a different henhouse as otherwise they just get pooped on by the ones on the perch!! Their mum never roosted, she was an adult when we got her and we couldn't persuade her to perch...spent so much time trying but as soon as I shut the door she jumped down again...apart from super glue don't think anything would keep her on a perch! She never taught her chicks to roost and I haven't been able to either so have given up and they sleep where they like in the henhouse! They're happy...so I'm happy!

Enjoy your girls....soon be time to get them up...mornings getting lighter so longer to watch them!!

They look great Zac!  before long (in just a day or so) you'll be swapping crazy chicken storys with the rest of us!

as for me, I'm totally henpecked today - I was planting some bulbs and my 3 all decided they were better in their bellies than in the ground (yes, I know that daffs are poisonous... hopefully now so do the chooks  :roll: ) and they kept on pecking at my hands in an attempt to get me out of the way!!!

Keep the stories coming Zac, there's never a boring chicken story to be told!
