Scratching is instinctual from day one.

Offer a small perch if you can, once they are confident in walking. They'll love it.

I will now! I didn’t think they could get any cuter but if they started roosting on a perch that would be cuteness overload!

I haven’t even thought about it I’m hoping they’ll be fully grown by then so I don’t miss out on anything but that won’t be the case there’s only 3 more days till I have to give them back might have to get my own )

Munchkin (my silkie) seems to be broody I went to collect eggs and found four of my chickens had laid in the corner of their coop and munchkin hasn’t been coming out of the mini coop as often as usual so the two that were in the mini coop I took out and just out of curiosity I put 2 golf balls near her and I’ve just been to check on her and she’s put them underneath her.
I’m very tempted to buy some hatching eggs after looking after these cuties from my uncle but not sure if I’m getting ahead of myself due to having looking after chicks and then suddenly having a broody hen I’m not sure? I think she’ll be a good mummy to some babies any words of wisdom from the BYC’s eggsperts are appreciated!
