Busybird Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 We had snow today. The children came home from school and went straight out to the garden to play. DD gathered up all the snow she could find (it wasn't very deep) and built a snow chicken! She rushed inside to get her camera but was beaten to her sculpture by Chestnut who took one look at the 'new arrival' and pecked it's head off Having established the pecking order she wandered off before her deeds could be recorded. I was laughing so much I didn't think to get my camera out... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The 3 D's Posted January 7, 2009 Share Posted January 7, 2009 I like that snow chook. We had a bit of snow where we are and the chooks ate most of it that was in their run. It was quite funny really. Matt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
