Cat tunnels for catio wanted

[Henslaved]

It all seemed to be going ok

Everyone was minding their own

and then

I had the camera set to sport setting, it all happened so fast.

Needless to say I swiftly put the camera down and picked up the water pistol, that didn't deter them so in the end I had to wade in and step between them.

Muppet (the gold laced) came away with a few scratches and a higher ranking in the pecking order , she was previously bottom.

Ugh I hate intros .

I know it's not nice to see chooks having a bit of 'argy bargy' but those photographs are great!

[superkitty]

Wow

Thank you . It's not nice to watch, especially when their your own .

Thankfully things have settled down a little now, with only minor pecks and chases . Be a while before I let them sleep together.

I don't know who finds it more stressful me or the girls .

[Ain't Nobody Here]

Wow, handbags at dawn .

 

We had a similar incident but I didn't get as good photos as you did .

 

[Cheeky Chooky]

I think you did!

[Henslaved]

Yeah, I think you did too , can't work out who she is having a go at though , no-one else seems interested in her acrobatics .

It looks like the barred hen is stood on the other one

[sparkysmum]

Amazing photies henslaved & anh

[Ain't Nobody Here]

She was mortally offended that I'd brought that white thing into her garden . Lulu was totally unimpressed .

 

@ surfer_chicken. It does look like that .

[Henslaved]

They have all been mingling in the same run for a few weeks now with no problems, but still choosing to sleep in their separate quarters............................until tonight .

 

It was Pudding who made the decision that she wanted to sleep with the oldies (wouldn't mind but she is suffering crop issues at the moment ) Treacle was a little unsure, but in the end decided she didn't want to be alone .Don't know if it will last though, there was quite a bit of argy bargy and head pecking and poor old Pudding copped for it in the eye from Muppet (naughty girl ).

Ouch

 

Doing well overall though

[Chortle Chook]

I like the barred chooks who in both pictures seem intent on 'not noticing what the neighbours get up to'

Thanks, I have taken things slowly and let the girls decide when they want to be friends. Top chook Rosie has surprised me though as she is very tolerant of the newbies and will even share a corn cob with them, until she gives them the eye

Yeah! That'll be Pudding, any signs of violence and she wanders off and whistles to herself, unless it's aimed at her, then she's off like a shot .
