Valkyrie Posted February 7, 2011 Share Posted February 7, 2011 So glad the hen is safe. The wind picked up here yet again today and I've noticed that instead of pecking around with quite a bit of space between them, the girls are gathering up close. They did create a racket earlier on - seems the garden swing blew over (again - that's 3 times so far, although in the opposite direction this time), so I guess that frightened them. Much stronger today because it even blew their food dishes down the path. At least it's calmed down and is quite mild. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Random_Girl66 Posted February 8, 2011 Share Posted February 8, 2011 I didn't realise that Eglu's would be affected by the wind - blown over etc. Is that just in exceptionally strong winds or have others had problems during normal british weather? Think I'll pin mine down anyway - better to be safe than sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
