    Most of our birds are opportunists, which is why Ha'penny was so crucial to flock safety. She didn't give them opportunity. 🤣

    My friend lost a bunch of chicks to the crows. They shot one & hung it up & had no more trouble.

    Perhaps... Henry is very taken with Alpia. As a non-chook I see that all my super strong personalities are now gone and what's left are sweet, non-aggressive, non-dominant girls. The flock is now mostly really, really young. World, & Alpia are the oldest ~5/6. Chavi is 3/4. Everyone else...

    With the passing of Ha'penny I expected Wrold to step into the vacant lead hen position but Wrold promptly decided to go broody. I have given her 3 eggs. Sadly I have none of Ha'penny's. Alpia is a sweetie but not interested. India would be next in line but she is still really young, Chavi...

    My wild girl is no more. I am devastated. Some time Saturday night she left her perch. I found her Sunday morning wet & lethargic behind the nesting boxes, picked her up & brought her up to the house for some vitamins before popping her in a quiet crate. I was preaching, so busy getting ready...

    Ha'penny has done her dash. Yesterday she went over or through 3 fences. Today all the southern fences went up another 18". There is no solid landing spot. She is not impressed. Everyone investigating the "improvements".

    MJ's little flock

    I've been throwing avo skins to my girls for years & not killed one yet. Suspect they'd need to eat a huge amount for it to be toxic.

    You are right of course but I had a very small window of opportunity & I knew he'd be a great rooster - & he is! I preferred to take a risk with Henry, where I knew the owner & her birds, than wait & risk a bird only fit for the soup pot. As I said, he is related to more than 1/2 the flock...

    Next door is a rental so not my neighbour's responsibility & the owner refuses point blank to spend any money on the property. Besides the fences in question are only chicken wire & easily fixed with some zip ties.

    Woke up this morning to find next doors fig tree had shed several large branches into the chook pen. First order of business was to fix the fences. 🙄
