Thank you, I'll give that a go , Demi

I tried that with mine because I wanted to give her water in a syringe, but when I got to the third step, she shook her head side to side and wouldn't hold her mouth open. Do you know how I can stop this? Thank you, Demi

Hehe, thank you! Pearl is very curious near the camera and won't hesitate to try and eat it!

We live urban too but if the chooks aren't too loud and if you explain to your neighbours that its only for a short while, it should be okay. Good luck

Agreed! I think the best thing to do would be to wait it out a few months to see if they lay eggs. Although, that could depend on if you live in the country or urban areas. Could be a bit of trouble from your neighbours if its urban!

Sounds like a similar situation to me! Whenever we go on holidays, our chickens start laying eggs but when we get home, they go broody after about 3 weeks. I think its all the cuddles and warmth the chooks get!! :)

When I'm scrolling down reading replies to questions, I see that some people have a quote/description at the bottom of the box with their reply. Anyone know how you get this? Thanks, Demi
