This is how it happens.
I spot a chicken contemplating escape ~ in this case Ha'penny.

She hears her name called & promptly hurtles back into the run.

Wow! She's got big spurs!

 

[Ribh]

I'm a terrible softy.
The girls got their run & a watermelon treat to boot.
Yes, Aoife gobbled her watermelon & promptly hopped the fence.

Yep. They worry me a bit. I may have to file them & that will be fun & games! All the Campines are getting spurs.

Does anyone have any creative ways to administer antibiotics to a rooster? (I think Jaffar is tired of soldier fly larva )??????? Suggestions appreciated!

Crush the tablet. Get a piece of bread and dip it in honey and then dip that in the crashed antibiotic.

It will be a sad day when breakouts are over.

Roll Call at Ribh's once the fence is done.

What fence?!

 

[Ribh]

What fence?!

I know, I know. We're working on it.

Good evening folks

 

[Shadrach]

I know, I know. We're working on it.

Just to give you some encouragement....
My friend with the Fayoumies has a two meter tall fence around his property. They get over that without any problems whatsoever. Most don't bother because they have plenty of room but I think I mentioned earlier somewhere he has two pairs on his neighbours land currently.

Thanks, Shad. I do remember you mentioning it. I am always very interested in the Fayoumies. They sound so like my girls. Mostly they stay close even when they get out because this is more wilderness than an actual yard & fairly interesting but someone [probably Aoife] led the charge out to the road yesterday & the nutters all just followed.
