[pspatbyc]

These chickens are getting real expensive.

Why, what ever do you mean? Can you elaborate?

Chickens are givers. They leave gifts for everyone everywhere. They are very giving creatures. They give and give and give and give and give and give.........

Mine is a simple math equation:
Feed+ love= Happy hens

High winds and rain here. NEVER a good combination, especially if you have lots of gum trees around your house which are known for dropping their branches spontaneously. My room is almost totally in boxes. I have like one thing left on my shelf and my clothes are still in my drawers but everything is getting packed

Good luck with the move Butterscotch. You sound like you are pretty much ready.

Moving the animals will take some planning I expect. How will that be done?

Walnuts

Thanks to @Shadrach talking about how much his flocks like walnuts i decided to see if mine would like them. Not surprisingly certain hens loved them. More surprisingly one did not.

Doesn't like Walnuts

• Hattie

Hattie gave me the most disappointed look she has ever done. She was just disgusted with me and my icky walnuts.

I filmed the flock last night eating some. I was late getting out to them, work, and Phyllis had already gone to bed so she is missing.

I think you would have more takers if you broke them into small pieces Bob. That's what I do anyway. Walnuts are fattening I should mention.

I had a bag of mixed nuts , dried fruits and seeds that I never got around to finishing.

Shad's talk of walnuts made me think of them. I offer them to the girls but hit them with half a brick first to break them up ....the nuts! Not the girls!

Have you thought of putting a small deck outside that door Lozzy? Then you could have a seat out there with them and wash all the poop down between the slats!
