Hens with funny habits

Recommended Posts

my funny habit girl died today...she used to tip her head back and lay it sideways on her neck...I thought she had broken her neck when I first saw her...she pottered around with the others happily all winter and was due to give me !eggblue! any day now..but I found her in the garden this evening :(

My Columbian Blacktail (Marge) HAS to get in the Cube whilst I'm poo picking, even if she's up the other end of the garden, as soon as she hears the clunk of the back of the Cube being removed, she hares down the garden and jumps into the nest box for a nose round! Very odd.

 

Sorry to hear about your girl Lindafw. x

We have the silly bedtime rituals too, they insist on going to bed in almost exactly the same order night after night. Olive Poland & Hob"Ooops, word censored!" are always by far the earliest ones to bed. Top girls Poppy & Robin are always the last, except for Penelope Devereux who roosts on top of her coop until I go outside, one look from me and she flies down, says a few words and slowly walks into the coop :lol:
