migsy Posted May 11, 2011 Share Posted May 11, 2011 The Cubs came today to look at my chickens. I've had it planned for a few weeks so it was quite good that I could show them my new ex-caged birds (at a distance!) and explain to them the difference between free range and caged. I was amazed by how excited they were about chickens and how many questions they asked. My Amber Star. Poachy, was literally the star of the show and was happy to be stroked and held. The Achaler said he wanted to bring the Cubs back again as they all enjoyed it so much! Nothing like a bit of chicken education. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

migsy Posted May 12, 2011 Author Share Posted May 12, 2011 Brilliant . I wonder if they've all gone home and said "Mum, can we keep chickens?" . All kids who come to our house say that! I was amazed at their interest. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
