bouldercroft Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I was doing some clean-up in the run... adding new woodchips washing the glug and grub topping up the dust bath with new dirt and ashes added a log for them to sit on, peck at, do what chickens do... you'd think I'd thrown a cayote in the run...they were growling at it they are now sitting in the giving the log long hard stares they are toooooooo funny!

Ain't Nobody Here Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I put a lovely little tyre in my girls' WIR for a dustbath. They wouldn't go within 4 feet of it . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
