Just beautiful 😍.

Mostly I just have semi- rigid half inch netting over the run. When it's stretched tight, it doesn't present too much of a hazard - although Ferdy manages to get his spurs caught in it if I don't keep them trimmed. The problem is the soft mesh type. I'm having to use it periodically to separate...

Wow! How awful for you and the chickens to have to deal with bald Eagle attacks. But how magnificent to see! I was lucky enough to see a wild golden eagle locally quite recently. Truly majestic! I have to have bird netting round the run due to bird flu regulations, unfortunately.

I refuse to use it where I can’t monitor it at least 3 times a day. Years ago, I found a hedgehog hanging upside-down in pea and bean netting. It had dislocated a hip and the netting had badly cut into it's stomach. I did what I could then took it to the vet the next day. He put some stitches in...

He's the best, always tries to let me know if something is amiss or one of the girls or Stan needs something. I had another reminder of why I hate bird netting yesterday. I was putting everyone to bed and noticed a movement out of the corner of my eye. A newly fledged sparrow was caught in it...

So pretty 😍 Blaine is going to be one handsome young man!

Oh gosh! So glad she was O.K. Ferdy was crowing for around 15 minutes the other morning. I was busy working at my desk so I ignored him until I realised it had been going on too long. When I investigated, I discovered him in the run, stood completely motionless. Turned out his left foot was...

Wow! Great coop! And I'd happily take any (or all) those chicks off your hands 😍

Tried that, didn’t work:idunno

Ooh, looks like you may be lucky! Don't take my word for it though, I'm notoriously bad at sexing young birds:th

Can you convince my DH that my 4 bantams only count as half a chicken each, please? He doesn't believe me when I tell him that :hit

So pretty! Blue band looks almost like a hawk in that pose with those markings!

:welcome I talk to my chickens too. It's the only sensible conversation I get all day. Not sure they feel the same way, given how they side eye me sometimes 🤣

That's great news! Hope she stays well ❤️🤞

A very happy birthday for yesterday!

Has it been a cold winter there? It has been relatively mild and wet here this year and I don't think the mites have taken much of a break. I've also got a small outbreak which I've been controlling for about two months but a friend's coop nearby was infested in late December and has been...

Very lucky girls!

Wow, so much space! Lucky, lucky chicks.

:hugs :hugs :hugs❤️ Aww, so glad to have you back! I'm so, so sorry Forest hasn't found his way home yet, it's absolute torture when a beloved companion goes awol. I bet Tally is missing him too. Fingers crossed he returns soon :fl. You're clearly doing all you can to ensure that happens. Your...

Mine are very fond of pork too 😋
