Unsecure chicken perches

[Cheeky Chooky]

One of my D'Anvers, Pip, is the chicken equivalent of a cleaner fish in the ocean She always fusses around the girls, pecking tiny bits of mash off of their beaks and nostrils and just generally makes sure they're all clean and tidy I caught her doing this to Dolly when I was filming them on Sunday and thought you might like to see the clip

 

 

I also thought you might like to see what a chatty little chicken she is

 

[Henslaved]

I love that girl .

 

Poor Dolly looks like she daren't move .

[superkitty]

What a cutie pie

[jasperaliceuk]

Loved the way she wiped her beak on the other's feathers. Your run is luxuriously kitted out!

Can I join the Pip and Dolly fan club They are really lovely

[Pearls007]

I'm sure I heard Dolly say "She's lovely - but sometimes I just wish she wouldn't fuss! Now I can eat and drink in peace."

Pip is such a little sweetheart, such a little character, I bet they all give you so much pleasure.

[Groovychook]

What a little poppet- she's a darling!

I clocked that too Showed OH lovely videos and pointed out beautiful WIR He loved Pip, but I have only just increased my flock to 4 (2 Warrens and 2 LF silkies )so don't think I can really ask for any more

 

(at the moment )

[Pikey]

This has brightened up my lunch break as it reminds me of my Anvers who also do beak cleaning of the rest of the flock......anyone would think i didn't feed them

 

Your set up is amazing

[Cheeky Chooky]

Hee hee...thanks for the lovely and funny comments

[Kazzy73]

Shes so cute, such a funny little character

[Chortle Chook]

Ah, Pip is lovely.

Have you thought of providing feet cleaning services at a price with her, the way people go and get their feet nibbled by fish these days? I've never had that done but I've heard it raved about on the radio. I think I'd far rather Pip did it than a fish.
