Do you decorate your coop for Christmas?
chickiepiggies replied to txswanie's topic in Chickens, Eggs and Hatching
i have decorated the WIR but its high up so they cant reach it to peck, its my first chicken christmas last year they went to the cattery for a holiday as i was in Belgium so they will be spoilt this year santa chicken mummy will bring lots of yummy treats just for one day i may put a few more decoration on when i get them down from the loft to decorate the tree!! -
i have a WIR for 4 hens, no free range time at the moment only at weekends as i work full time. But as of next week i'm part time so more chicken time. they play in the garden only when i'm there to keep an eye out i watch them from the cosy conservatory They have a 2.5m x 3.5m sqaure run for them to play in being cold and snowy they dont seem to mind being in there as long as they have there warm mash/worm/corn/porridge mix every morning
