First free range !

Recommended Posts

Have just let the chooks out for their first wander around the garden, I had intended to follow advice on this forum and let them out an hour before dusk, but it's such a nice sunny afternoon and I was impatient , so we let them out an hour ago.

Elsie and Bluebelle walked straight out, bold as brass and decimated an aqualegia seedling within 20 seconds :lol: lottie and margo followed when they realised nothing disatrous had happened to the first two, and Hattie and Pepper stayed in the run wondering where everyone was going !

I couldn't believe how adventurous Elsie and Lottie were, I think they covered the whole of the garden, lottie made my heart stop when she took fright and leapt in the air - she could have easily cleared the 5ft fence if she'd tried :shock: we didn't have to wait 'til dusk, they all made their way back to their pen after an hour, it happened to be treat time, so I shut them in and gave them some corn - hopefully they'll remember and come back as easily next time :) . Anyway, heres some pics
