Guest Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 To be sung to the tune of Amazing Grace Amazing Chooks, how much we love The eggs that you all lay, We once had grass, but now we've none A very small price to pay. Amazing Chooks, you cluck and squark, whenever you need fed, The Glug and Grub sit in the run Of the Eglu that's shiny red. Amazing Chooks, you di-ig up The veggie patch and weeds You eat the slugs, and snails that roam, Just what every gardener needs. Amazing Chooks, you roost at night, ocassionally in a tree. We love you loads, Amazing Chooks, They should give everyone one for free....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sheilaz Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Shona, that's brilliant. I could almost hear the bagpipes in the background, lovely. Good one, Buffie, this is a good thread. I'll see what I can do at 2.30 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 I was up at 2.30 am but all I could think about was "When will that ***************** dog stop barking!" What are you two like! Brilliant songs! Love it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Amazing Chooks, you flap about, Whenever a cat draws near, You scare them off, with much ado, You're the one all felines fear. Amazing Chooks, we feed you so many s"Ooops, word censored!"s, that you'll get huge, You love to sit out in the sun, But dread the odd deluge. Amazing Chooks, your feathers shine You keep them clean all day, By sitting in, a dusty bath, With soil and sand and clay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

buffie Posted June 13, 2006 Share Posted June 13, 2006 Lady is a tramp... or Chooks are my gals! My hens are hungry for brekkie at 8 they adore some sweetcorn or the odd grape they can't be bothered with something they hate That's why the chooks are my gals! They love the hot, warm, still, fab air on their backs on their feathers in fact how's about that BBxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
