Installing Indoor Cat Tree

[Richard]

I was checking out the collective term for geese (in flight, in V formation, a skein, but on the water; a wedge) when I came across the following;

 

These terms are archaic; they were once obsolete, but they have

been revived somewhat in the 19th or 20th centuries:

A building of rooks

A murmuration of starlings

A muster of peacocks

A peep of chickens

 

How about that? A peep of chickens.

 

Wonderful - no longer do I have a flock, or even a noisy bunch or a disparate misplaced conglomeration of non laying pains in the b*t ....

 

I now have a peep of chickens in my garden.

I love it! 'Peep' suits a few in the back garden much better than a 'flock' doesn't it?

[Egluntyne]

I'd rather have a peep than a flock anyday!

Hmmm - I think I still prefer that one Richard

[Richard]

I'd rather have a peep than a flock anyday!

 

I'd be careful - the obvious retort is 'have a peep at what?'

 

Perhpas I should have titled the thread 'I've had a peep'

They're really nice. I do have one chicken who is a "peeper" when she's upset.

Mostly I have a raaawwwkkk of chickens...

Now I can relate to that. I hear it all day long, and never knew how to spell it!

um yes - I'm sure I could. They look a bit 60's - not that there's anything wrong with that!

My favourite is A Stand of Flamingoes.. sounds so much like an umbrella stand, which is just how they look!

 

Ilove those doorstops.
