Lesley-Jean Posted March 4, 2006 Share Posted March 4, 2006 And when you go out to shut your chooks in at night, you will hear some gentle clucking in the eglu, so you slowly open the egg port door and see some little beaky feathery faces, sleepily looking at you. It's great. Yes Yes Yes Bliss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cate in NZ Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 And when you go out to shut your chooks in at night, you will hear some gentle clucking in the eglu, so you slowly open the egg port door and see some little beaky feathery faces, sleepily looking at you. It's great. Yes Yes Yes Bliss Hate to say it, but right now mine glare at me balefully along the lines of who opened the eggport door and let all the cold air in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mel (& Paul) Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Yup ours too! Margot Well Really Jerry. "excuse me! I do not think that a little civility and good manners would go astray. How DARE you let the cold air in and point that torch at me. I simply MUST have my beauty sleep. Jerry. Jerry. JERRY!!!. Do something!"

The Dogmother Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Little Lavinia makes me laugh with the way that she's alway the last in the Eglu at night, but when I look in through the eggport, she's always at the bottom of a pile of chickens - keeping warm.

The Dogmother Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 I have to move them around to check that they're all there, it's like a lights out roll call! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken on a mission Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Has anyone invented a light sensing automatic door opener yet as the girls are so desparate to get out in the mornings I'll have to get my hubby working on that one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted March 5, 2006 Share Posted March 5, 2006 Ours have started an early morning roll call again around 7am now the lighter mornings are here. I always say 'night night' to mine through the egg port, and more often than not they are facing each other and look as though they have their heads resting on each others shoulders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
