I have just got back from my hols and had the girls out free ranging and felting there run.

I have missed them so much, we have spent a large part of the holiday looking at chooks if we happen to pass any or for chook stuff in shops.

I already know I want more.

I just love them, they are so wonderful.

Tell me about it. I do love my girls so

hi ya,

 

We missed ours too when we were on holiday. We love ours too, but not when "Pecky" clucks loudly at 8.00am!! had to go and tell her to be quiet this morning!!

 

We were checking on ours on the webcam while we were away from my parents computer!

my mum had a bit of an incident and she daren't tell me in case I came home, she accidentally left the door shut and then the neighbour tried to let them in but the door jammed and she posted them all through the nesting box as she didn't know how to open the back. Anyway the next day Stripey layed 2 sfties so was obviously a bit upset, my mum who apparently is not bothered about chooks said she gave her extra cuddles. bless em.

oh crikey! Our neighbours looked after ours. Ours were confined to their run and not allowed to free range til we came back. We thought it best, just in case something happened while we away. I hate leaving them and letting someone else look after them.

I haven't even booked a holiday since I got mine and I usually try to escape twice a year (single, no kids ).

 

I keep rationalising that I don't want to lumber anyone just yet, and I can't really afford it after re-flooring the bungalow throughout, but it's really that I don't want to leave them. I was bad enought leaving the cats for a couple of weeks, I'll be a wreck leavng the hens too

 

They really do worm their way in, don't they?
