aren't they clever - well sometimes!!

Recommended Posts

Our girls arrived just over 4 weeks ago. They looked like they had settled in well and although we haven't had an egg yet I am optimistic that one will arrive soon. The garden looks like a swamp...and I have been somewhat concerned about all the talk of chickens liking a good dust bath...but where in all the mud would a girl go for some good ol' fashion dust wriggling.

 

Well I ventured to the bottom of the garden this afternoon and discovered their own bathing area...right by the compost bin, which is tucked up by the fir hedge . The hedge must provide good protection against the weather and suck up a lot of the rain. I am so proud that my girls are resourceful :D

Mine have found a dust bath in our garden that is a swamp too - it's currently under a bush in a quite boggy bit of earth? I'm so glad I didn't fork out for a home made dust bath for them.

 

I'm new to chicken keeping but one thing I have learned in a short time is that they are very resourceful at getting what they want and being very cute for treats! :D
