One last time on the Faverolle vs Faverolles discussion....got an email from Peter Merlin and he said that those who said Faverolles with an S all the time, are absolutely correct.

That is very true! One of the others started jumping on my shoulder but she tries to get the plugs and studs out of my ears so I've had to stop her sitting up there now, I thought once she realised she couldn't eat them she would stop - but it just made her more determined and it got pretty painful! LOL, chickens eh?

Other birds, esp parrots, do this. I am guessing but if its shiny like the back of a beetle, they peck it. Crows like shiny things to line their nests. Can you imagine a fav nest lined with ... ear rings in this case? "Some very fancy chicks live there." This does not explain their love of styrofoam.

LOL! That would be hilarious if they lined their nests with things they found, my favs nest would have earrings, threads from my clothes, slices of cooked carrot (they don't eat these... rather just run around with them!), and zippers, they are obsessed with zippers. It would not be a very attractive nest, it's funny what they find interesting though isn't it?
Oh bless their fluffy beards.
