see now...ours pick at the dog when he's snoozing in the afternoon sun so i'm having nightmares of finding  him with a leg missing!

(also sat watching a hen pick at hubby's bum whilst he was on all fours cleaning out the coop - now that would have been worth paying pay-per-view every time it managed to actually grab some skin and resulted in him banging his head!)

Mine aren't that keen on worms if I dig them up, if OH digs them up they fight over them :wacko:

Sometimes, in idle moments, I wonder what would happen if I dropped dead in the run and my body wasn't found for a few days.  :blink:

Oh no!   :ohmy:  What your hens did is not that unusual unfortunately!
When I die I will slide in sideways, a glass of wine in one hand and chocolate in the other, screaming, "Whooo hooo!  What a ride!" as life is to be enjoyed to the fullest!

Georgie caught a frog from the pond this morning :(

Poor frog was just sitting there, minding it's own business, when along comes Georgie to have her morning drink, yes she prefers it out of the pond first thing, clean water's not good enough, anyway she saw the frog, it didn't see her until it was in her beak >:(

I was not impressed :mad: >:(
