    Actually it’s turkey and duck poo. I added it to the compost/dirt pile this morning for the girls to blend it for me so I can use in my vege garden in a few months. Smells bad but they love it and I always have lovely fresh veges thanks to them

    Thanks so much for your feedback. She is definitely broody. If she is out of the small cage she will walk around the run and pick up dried grass any flyaway straw even gum leaves and put them on her back. She even picks up bits in the dirt and calls her imaginary babies. It is quite...
