good_egg Posted August 19, 2012 Share Posted August 19, 2012 I and still quite new to chicken keeping, although I do seem to have crammed a lot of experience into a short widow! One thing I have learnt is that you need to celebrate the little things. So tonight I am celebrating the major step that my girls took - they all made it up the ladder and put themselves to bed! We have had two nights of all but Connie making it up and I was beginning to wonder if her top knot stopped her from seeing the ladder or if her curled toes stopped from climbing, but tonight she scaled it like a pro (it has netting and cable ties as suggested). Now if the fireworks at the wedding factory would just shut up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
