Timmy Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 um when i open my eglo and look inside one of my chickens (marmalade) is sitting on marmites head im a bit confused as marmalade is usually very shy (my chickens are still very new) but when she is sitting on marmites head she is as bold as a ... bold thing.

Tweety Posted December 11, 2007 Share Posted December 11, 2007 Hi Timmy, Don't worry about it, it's quite normal chicken behaviour! My girls are always sleeping on top of each other and in this freezing weather they are much warmer like that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do some bonkers things these chooks, which is what makes them so adorable. Does Marmite look as though she's uncomfortable or distressed by Marmalade's behaviour at all? Do they get on well during the day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted December 12, 2007 Share Posted December 12, 2007 Yes Timmy, there is probably no need to worry. Mine all pile in on top of eachother. They separate out later I've noticed. Leave 'em to it. As Tweety syas....they are huddling together for warmth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
