Dustbathing Pics

Recommended Posts

I know how much you all love piccies :D

Mine make me laugh so much when they are dustbathing:

 

Pom doesn't look too impressed at Fizz joining her in the bath!

But then Bella tries to get in on the act:

OK, I don't think this is working girls:

Not very often they put up with this kind of attention, but they are not getting out and letting Florrie in!

anyone else heard their chickens 'purring' while they are dustbathing? I couldn't believe it the first time I heard it, but it was definitely coming from the hens!

 

I love to see them dustbathing (and yes, Hazel, I put a tray in the run too and all they did was kick it out) - you know you've got happy hens then.

LOL It looks as if they are entering a competition to see how many chickens can get into a dustbath at the same time.

Is that just compost in the tub?? I have a large planter and could use that now I have seen your facilities. :wink:

 

It's compost, soil, sand, diatom and red mite powder! 8)

 

Glad you all enjoyed the pics. They still make me laugh when I look at them. Silly hens! Worth their weight in gold. :lol:
