Haha, it's like laying in the grass and looking at the pretty shapes in the clouds. My husband never could see what I was seeing. Imagination.
Hi team, just a real quick note. I am alive, I am way behind and I didn't even get to run. I have been away cramming in a heap of 'mates rates' reno's ina small country town.
I have much to read and quote but I will quickly like to say thanks for the badge and the warm welcomes. Thats as far as I could get. I need a hot shower and some home cooked food then be back to catch up, quite a few posts to read, and even a bit of news to share too.
Plural! Thats some great news, won't be long and they will grow in size and frequency! Hi five to your flockWoohoo, Veera laid an 30g egg in the morning, and I just heard a bit of an egg song coming from the coop and went to check, what do I see? Viiru exiting with a very puzzled look, and a beautiful 33g egg in the nest!
The culprit.
And her end product (no pun intended). It's the one in the middle.
So I can now say, that we have laying chickens!
Thanks, I forgot all about the nominations. I nominated Fancy, so glad she got one too!@Bens-Hens & @Fancychooklady
congrats on your awards!!!
nice badges
Thanks, I hardly earned it lol Must have just talked the right amount of chicken hahahahaCongrats Ben & Fancy! It looks like your shiny badges go on your older posts as well.
**Snort** Royalty hahahaha, took me a couple of days to find out!How exciting! We're acquainted with BYC royalty
Congrats to both of you!
Yeah sorry!Lol, bens really making me hold out for this
I was on a loooooong run ti find those unicorn eggs, failed and then had another looooong run home again. I am getting sick of thinking about Mondeo's, you can add sick of car yards to the list too.Ben is really neglecting us now. We need our dose of Australia based chicken entertainment!
Either he's out scoring unicorn eggs to put in his incubator, or then he has finally found the Mondeo of his dreams and is finalizing the deal. Unless he's running around the continent again.
High on my list, must be the age of the boys, but they have been very trying these holidays. I am sure the neighbours think my youngests name is "Rileyno"Option 3 - school holidays and the boys have finally sent him over the edge.
I have not been able to read it all, but I have saved it for later....and sharing with my other bat poop crazy running buddies!I think he's gone on one of his looong runs. So I'll just leave this here while he is away.

We have two 10l tubs of water, in heat they run low in the afternoon and get filled daily, ACV gets added every second day. In the cooler times like now they last our flock a couple of days, I usually change it due to needing a clean as they fill one with sand as they dust bath close by.Well, since we aren't getting anything out of Ben, it is apparently my job to keep the discussion going.
How much water do your chickens consume? We have a small half liter container in the run, which barely gets touched. I check it several times a day, but usually I'd say they only consume about 3-5 dl out of it daily. They do drink a bit out of the dog bowl in the yard, but that's even less. Maybe 1 dl. The nipple waterer inside the coop is only really used by Virpi (She goes in to eat and drink a couple times a day, while the others just stick to free ranging. She's our pig, and has found a way to spread around feed from a no waste feeder, but luckily the others clean most of it up before going to bed). We do mix about a 0,5-1 liter into their mash, but they don't always finish that either. So are they really just taking care of their water intake by free ranging? I'm reading stories about people going through gallons of the stuff daily with a dozen of chickens, while ours don't seem to drink anything at all. You ozzies might not be the best demographic for this question with you sauna-like climate, but maybe the Merkans have some input in case the down underers don't. How much should 8 chickens actually drink in a day?
I have just recently found this with a 'found' chicken I called Newy, more on Newy at the bottom of this post.A merkan may get a liter or ml but dL will stump most.
If your chickens are not running out of water each day then they are getting enough. That's the best measure. If they are free ranging they may get most of their H2O needs without you realizing it
....and here I am, not going to have time to touch base with the other threads I have to catch up on, will do that tomorrow.Glad to hear you're okay, Ben! Shower and eat and then start typing away
