Redwing Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 I have my oven dish ready for one of the table birds as we have crowing! There have been a few gargled attempts over the last week but this mornng full on crowing from inside the Eglu Whoever it was stopped as soon as they were let out but I think I know who it is, he is not fooling me and his days are numbered!

moochoo Posted April 30, 2009 Share Posted April 30, 2009 Maybe we should have that necking party after all? Neck a bottle, neck a chook! I'm sure we'll have one like that. One of our boys, even though he only 2.5 weeks old is massive compared to the others and is already really agressive, trying to attack me...it's quite sweet really how he protects the rest of the chickies. I'm sure he'll be the first to cock-a-doodle-do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mostin Posted May 1, 2009 Share Posted May 1, 2009 He's obviously a clever one, only crowing when your backs turned . I'm sure you'll find the perpetrator in the end, and then...........dinner time . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted May 1, 2009 Author Share Posted May 1, 2009 Noisy crowing this teatime The run is being moved down the garden tomorrow for the sake of the sanity of us and the poor long suffering neighbours! I went and apologised and the lady was lovely and said they didn't mind bless her The chickens will be going down the garden behind the greenhouse for now though The lady who owned our house before was single and very quiet and tidy and now the neighbours have to put up with us, the XBox, the dog and a garden like Steptoe's yard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
