jills Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Mine got absolutely drenched today, but could have sheltered if they wanted to. They seem to always come out lovely and dry in the morning and seem none the worse for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 Mine have spent practically all day in the rain and have only just gone to roost.There are plenty of places they could shelter,but they prefer being out in the rain odd as it is! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
beebee Posted July 9, 2008 Author Share Posted July 9, 2008 i no they seem a bit dim there is plenty of cover and they choose not to go in. When im cold i want to hide in a duvet not stay out for more. I was putting an extensoin on the run and i got soaked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted July 9, 2008 Share Posted July 9, 2008 my lovely fluffy cochins looked like drowned rats today, really doesnt suit them! My girls spent most of the afternoon in the garage drying off their knickers by the tumble drier vent. They love it in the garage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
