It's bucketing down here today and the chickens went out in it and ended up soaked. I put them away but now they're grumpy that they're locked up in the covered run and they're all bedraggled. I'm scared they're going to get sniffles so should i dry them somehow or leave them? should I in general keep them in the covered run when it rains or will it do them no harm?

they are generally ok , as long as they have somewhere to go to shelter from the rain, and will dry off overnight.

oh my god that's a brilliant pic! my husband wanted to turn the hairdryer on them but i thought they would all have heart attacks!

have to admit, my DD's will barely sit still to have their hair dryed never mind my chickens, and I ahve shooed them back in their run, when they've been soaked.

 

The Dog also objected to being hoovered, when I thought it a great way to get rid of his moulting coat....perhaps I should blow dry him when he comes home soaking wet???
