Gertie Posted June 30, 2012 Share Posted June 30, 2012 I have enjoyed watching my hens gardening today and free ranging, and I think they are great, I have posted some pics of my lovely hens. They are always such amusing company when I am gardening. We stayed outside all day and thankfully during the torrential rain they decided to take cover for a change rather than standing out it in and getting soaked!! This is Rosie, trying out a nectarine This is Plucky, the ex battery hen who is 3 and a half now This is Iris, my new silver sussex hen exploring the flowers This is Flora enjoying the dust bath This is Briar, rummaging in the flower beds Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gertie Posted June 30, 2012 Author Share Posted June 30, 2012 Thank you. They absolutely love the dust bath. They queue up to get in it. Even the cats like sleeping in the same spot (yuk) because it stays dry under the tree whatever the weather! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted July 1, 2012 Share Posted July 1, 2012 Lovely photos and very pretty girls . Hard to believe Plucky is an ex-batt, she looks great . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gertie Posted July 1, 2012 Author Share Posted July 1, 2012 Thank you! She does look good, but I have defo noticed she is slowing down a bit. She doesn't lay any more and she gets her off days. I just want her to go on forever. She pulled through her last episode with the help of a vitamin injection and Beryls stuff from the vets.
