Australia - Six states..and that funny little island.

[Susan Hampshire]

Fancy I hope you have seen the last of those blighters. Love the silkie, mine won't go in their house they are so dumb. I've put a tarp up so they can go under the cover. They go in their house sometimes during the day but only sleep on the ground. I have put them in every night for ages, as soon as I stop they stay outside. I'm going to have to put a raised floor and a better roof before winter.
Susan Good luck with madge. I hope she heals quickly.

Thanks Lucky... I hope so too... hate it when my gals are poorly

 

[Susan Hampshire]

Oh how annoying... your naughty gals wanting to stay out all night...it must be much warmer over there than here... very cold and dewy nights here on Bellarine Peninsula

 

[Susan Hampshire]

A couple of things.
1. Does anyone know if Serama bantams have made their way to Australia yet?
2. Hey Susan, Best of luck with Madge. Would be interested to know how that turns out.

Thanks Suzalorp i’ll keep updating on her progress and Take snaps

Love the pic. We have had much cooler temps this week too. I've even had to grab a jumper a couple of nights. OK so you would still be in a bikini with our night temps but it is getting cooler.

Madge’s good wattle

Here’s an update on Madge... after the Vet washing her wattle yesterday... she’s isolated and hates it but Tilly stands by her cage ...she’s eating and drinking well. I’ve included a before and after and a picture of her good wattle

Hey Susan, Madge's wattle looks a lot better.
She has a lovely, lush isolation cage to recover in!

It’s quite close to the main chicken run....she just hates being separated, her friend Tilly stands at the dividing fence and they chatter to each other!

She looks so much better. I hope she keeps improving for you.

Susan she does look better, I hope she keeps improving. Its great that her friends keeping her company, they are funny things you don't expect them to do that.

Its been raining all night and the silly silkies are still not going into their house. I have opened up under their coop so now they can get in there.
