Now they are very spoilt chickens Sydney
I was thinking about doing something similar by making blinds out of shade cloth for the western sun during summer

Speaking of broodys the Aussie broody gave the cattle dog a run for his money and he won't be sticking his nose back in the coop to look for free egg meals any time soon LOL big ol meanie !

They are a bit mad broody aussies. The one in the bananas I heard going ballistic yesterday I ran out thinking it was a snake. Nope it was another chicken trying to lay in her nest you would have thought she was being strangled the noise she was making lol.

Looks like I will b getting new blood lines for my marans soon. A friend out here has marans and we are going to do an egg swap. Hers are laying now and I will give her some of mine when they start. Hopefully we will get it sorted in the next few weeks.
