bluekarin Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 I didn't let them out this morning as I needed to go into town with the kids, seeing as they are back to school tomorrow (well two of them are, my ED has a teacher development day so another day off!) and I forgot to get some things they needed. So we get home, and let the ladies out and gave them some mixed corn. I go out to shut them in, as they are very good chooks and put themselves to bed at night (still not sleeping on the perch though) and I find they have spread the flower border all over the lawn! Not just a little scratch like they usually do - they have scratched the entire length of the border out! That's told us then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beach chick Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 bless their little hearts! I put shale chippings down around the edge of the house last summer, to keep weeds down in the bit between the patio and the house - ooh the girls had fun chucking those everywhere!!

Ain't Nobody Here Posted November 4, 2008 Share Posted November 4, 2008 Mine just love to get onto the driveway and help rearrange all the stones . They also like emptying the flowerbeds onto the lawn or paths . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluekarin Posted November 5, 2008 Author Share Posted November 5, 2008 Well, I raked up the grass, only for it to emptied all over the garden again today! I shall have to get some border edging to try and minimise it. But the cutest thing was after Daisy dug a huge hole, Moonshine and Cocoa were having a dust bath and then sat in the hole together. And then Cocoa was trying to hide her head underneath Moonshines wing! I wanted to get a photo, but didn't want to disturb them by opening the top of our stable door.
