Loving the rain....

Not me... The ladies... They have shelter but prefer to spend all day walking around getting drenched so they look like drowned rats by the end of the day, dies anyone else have chickens that want to be ducks?

Naw, my lot hate, hate, hate the rain.
You can see them visibly sulking and huddling under the shelter, bless their little beaks.

Our girls don't seem to be bothered by the rain.
We have a tarpaulin over the run, but being on a hill, and tarpaulin being tarpaulin, there is holes in it and the rain runs down through the coop!

They always have muddy feet and they don't seem bothered by the rain that gets in!

At least they don't look like drowned rats anymore :D

Mine didn't mind, though it looks as if Lady G had something to say. Nothing unusual there. They had their run, a garage and greenhouse, as well as natural shelter, but seemed worried they might miss something....

Mine aren't keen, they seem to always head for shelter!

I think maybe yours want to be ducks?

There is nothing quite so pathetic looking as a hen in the rain!
