You can have some of our rain! I think we've only had 30 dry days since January and our temps are about 3° below average for June. The chickens are still enjoying their watermelon regardless.
I'd be more than happy to have some too. Sweetcorn is my absolute favourite vegetable and in any way it's prepared. Except with worms - yuk! My brother assures me they are not nice...
Just been told that my Shetland hen, Gladys', dad has died at age 9. He had nine lives - trampled and knocked unconscious by a bull, tangled in electric fencing, nearly killed by another cockerel...he weathered it all. And appeared on National t.v. here in the UK! He died peacefully in his...
I love goats! I do not need a goat either but...
My friend has an Asiatic Golden Pheasant cock. He is a little 💩Terrorises her dogs, ducks and bantams. He's beautiful though, 😍.

I remember the first time Stan tried to crow. Stan watched his dad let out a magnificent crow, threw his heart and soul into copying him - head back, chest puffed out - and out came...a tiny, pathetic squeak :lau

Poor Callia!
We had similar issues with Alice in terms of travel and being taken to the vet. She had a 3 hour round trip to a specialist avian vet when she had EYP. She was so distressed by the whole experience and the vet couldn't do a lot for her other than antibiotics and painkillers. We...
Aww, I wish the boys well and hope they all find fantastic homes ❤️
I could recognise which one is Zacchaeus in the photo. He has something about him. Once he's got over losing his brothers, he'll really blossom, I think.
And such perfect floofs. Too cute for words :love:love:love
It depends. I have to cut them in half for Princess Gladys (my biggest hen). The other girls and Stan prefer them cut in half or quarters lengthways but I've seen them all scarf grapes down whole. In fact, I once saw Pru swallow a grape I swear was the size of her head! Took her a while, but she...
