Chipie's psychology is really a mystery to meChipie is the sweet little girl who somehow makes bad friends and ends up with bad attitude to other people. Her family was too small and too busy to be sufficiently attentive for getting her off to a good start in life. Her intellectual capacities were never cultivated. I've got it all worked out![]()

I could hear Merle's broody screams before I opened the coop and she ran to her nest in the barn as soon as I opened. She laid an egg, and although she really looked broody, she got up on her own three hours later. Piou-piou, Léa, Blanche and Cannelle also laid in the morning.
We began moving the wood around in the shed to empty the place where the coop will be : Gaston was rather worried and he inspected things carefully most of the afternoon. And we moved a baby olive sapling inside the chicken yard and planted a big pecan tree, which fascinated both teams.
And did we have a third day of peace between the roosters?
This photo speaks for itself...
Gaston was a bit overconfident and decided to take his pullets inside the run to eat from the ex-batts feeders ! This was too much to bear for Théo, who attacked him inside the run- not a good place at all with very little space to do roo kung-fu around and a good chance of getting hurt in the mesh or the wooden thing. So my partner got them out and we waited a bit, hoping they would calm down, but they didn't and it just go more violent. Théo was beginning to bleed from the comb and legs, and turn purple and pant, so we separated them. They left each other alone for the rest of the day.
The weather turned grey and windy this afternoon. We have heavy winds forecasted all week and normally a lot of rain tomorrow, let's hope it doesn't disappoint us once again !
