chooklady Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 My chooks have settled really well, if Abby has anything to do with it they will be tame by the weekend! Here are some photos that I've taken today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stoice Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 lovely photos - how do you get them to pose for you? My girls are rather camera shy - my camera is full of out of focus shots or all with their heads turned! They're beautiful chooklady, they look very content Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surferdog Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Beautiful pictures. Love the Bluebelle on the perch. Hyacinth used to like to hop up on a branch at first but she's now a bit too 'cuddly' to get up there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moomin Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 Chooklady they are lovely. And the run too. I like what you've used for the shade, is it that bamboo fencing stuff? Have you screwed it permanently to the run? I use a green tarpaulin on one side of the run for shade and it looks horrible - yours is very stylish!

I've got brushwood screening along the back, I'm pleased with it, it lets a bit of sunshine through and the air circulates well. I attached it with cable ties from the back just randomly.

alison Posted August 14, 2008 Share Posted August 14, 2008 I love the dustbath picture, mine avoid their tray and use the aubiose, which I am sure is not a good idea! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Donna_0 Posted August 15, 2008 Share Posted August 15, 2008 Awh they are lovely! Is the first pic a bluebelle? We have two and I love them (they are quite large- I call them gannets as they never stop eating!). I would love to get some more (been thinking about a cube but hubby is having none of it!!) I love to see everyone elses hens and their housing set ups..I'm glad your's have settled in nicely, you are obviously a very happy chook mom! -Barbara 28/07/08 -Margot 04/08/08 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
