D C S Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 A little story of what happened when my four girls were free ranging in my back garden, when the heavens opened, ive had my calder ranger lulu, rhode rock kylie,bluebell dusty, and amber link dolly since wednesday 11 aug.They dont really know us as family yet (but it wont take long )so not knowing how they would react to rain i donned the wet weather gear i.e wellies rain coat water proof trousers the whole kit and kaboodle, i was ready for the long haul i thought wrong kylie was already in the run dusty ran straight past me and in, dolly needed about 10 seconds of coaxing and then.... well lulu came from the far end of the garden after feeding on my wife julies tomatoes,like linford chicken (sorry) and straight in the run which is covered by the omlet winter cover one end and the summer cover the eglu end. oh and me? the drowned rat springs to mind Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carol U Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 I'd love to have seen you out in your foul (sorry) weather gear, with chickens streaking past to get in the dry. Chickens are very good at looking after their own best interests and having their devoted owners running round in circles! :lol: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted August 14, 2010 Share Posted August 14, 2010 Don't worry, you'll soon realise that chickens are actually quite happy stamping around in the rain! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
