choppish Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 today they encountered rain for the 1st time. One of them ingored it completely. the other stood in it looking very sorry for herslef. her tail was almost between her legs! is this standard chicken behaviour for "i'm not impressed..."? i assumed she was chilly.

Tilly Bud Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 Mine carry on pecking but stay under the shade. You could always get a winter shade from the Omlet shop if we're going to have another rainy summer, that keeps them a lot drier! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Posted July 7, 2008 Share Posted July 7, 2008 Despite the many shrubs they could hide under in garden and good shelter even in their run-mine prefer to be out in the rain.They do look a sight though when theres a monsoon going! They know though that rain means worms... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
