memphisto Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 Who replaced my lovely girls today with 7 naughty girls. Firstly, caught Ruby & Lottie the shed roof, so got them off the roof with the help of a mop .I goout at lunchtime and Willow is missing, can't find her anywhere. Looked over the fence and there she was dustbathing it the neighbours lovely pots, soil everywhere . They weren't in, so had to use a step ladder to get over and haul her back with her squawking loudly. 10 minutes later, pop out to take the rubbish out, find Maisy, Willow, Dilys and Bubbles on the shed roof. They've been put back in their runs for the afternoon, much to their disgust! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

percy049 Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 I'm glad none of mine have escaped over the fence (yet!). Our naughtiest hens have been called Lottie and Ruby.... must be something in the name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted November 8, 2011 Share Posted November 8, 2011 I don't know about clipping their wings, you should take their mobiles and iPods off them and send them to bed early . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alis girls Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 I despair of the youngsters of today - what are they like - I think bromide in their water? Thankfully my 2 have no views of cockerels or I would be in a pickle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
