Pro - Does anyone else's nest boxes get soaked in rain?

[Mel (& Paul)]

YES!!!!

We have!!!!!

 

(except when Charlie and Blue go tearing round at breakneck speed )

 

Its a bit muddy at the moment (perhaps we could get pigs........ )

[The Dogmother]

That's a good idea Mel, they love mud and Paul would love them too.

[Martin B]

So glad she is ok! Have you let Omlet know?

[The Dogmother]

No, I didn't tell them because it's not so much a design fault as down to a very small, dim hen

 

I might mention it though next time I am over there.

[Martin B]

If it says the eglu is suitable for bantams and this happens it should be worth mentioning.

[The Dogmother]

True, but Lucille is tinier than any other bantam - Dutch banties are about the smallest you can get - smaller than a pigeon. I will mention it to James though.

[Martin B]

No, she's not - that's Lily. Lucille is a very small speckled one....

 

 

What a beautiful picture!

Yup he is a tidger, it was very funny to see Dolly and Lucille next to each other.

 

How is Betty getting on with the other girls?

[The Dogmother]

Betty seems to have settled in fine and is nearly as big as the Wyandottes now. She's a pretty bird, but needs more handling to make her tamer, shame the weather's not better or I'd spend more time outside with them.

[Martin B]

I know exactly what you mean!

 

PM jsut about to come your way!

[The Dogmother]
