Laura & CTB Posted May 25, 2007 Share Posted May 25, 2007 Hi all I've just been watching my girlies get ready for bed - so cute with their little routines tried to photograph them snuggled together on their perch but of course theor ego's wont let them sit still if there's a camera around!! Guess i just wanted to say that this time last year I was only contemplating chickens in my life and a year on I cant imagine life without them. They are simple creatures - teaching me a lot about life - and when I need a laugh - they're always there. ready and willing!! I love 'em to bits.

theherd123 Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 You know i think it would be great to get chickens on prescription from the doctors After all they are so good for you in so many ways - cheer you up, get you out in the garden every day and produce beautiful eggs!

Lindsay Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 Definitely agree Laura, my girls have been such a source of pleasure, especially on those days when you've had enough of humans!! Just going out and getting some fresh air and having a chat with them banishes those blues every time!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 I have to agree with all of these posts, chickens are fantastic. They also get 8 year old girls out of bed on a saturday morning at 7.30am, dressed and ready to go out into the garden with them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chickenlass Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 I can't remember where exactly I read this ..It may have been on here or in a Chicken book but someone said that "Chickens bring a garden to life" and it is so very true.. I don't mind the constant weeding and grass cutting etc so much now because the girls make going inthe garden fun! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im greeted with this ..... "yes dear, we know you do " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
