DDU can I ask you about your chooks? You do have chooks don't you?
Roughly what sort of cage do you have i.e. wooden? How many chooks & what/how much do you feed them? I searched chook houses on ebay, do you suggest a good one?


Klarry what is needed to fox proof a chook house? We were thinking wire underneath and perhaps sleepers too? Are snakes & rats a problem?


Any information would be good 🙂

Lucky for some! the children will be swimming here by 9am.....did Anthony Perish sleep in?

[clair.de.lune]

I didn't hear Anthony Perish, the other night it was very light so that's why he was crowing early.

[clair.de.lune]

Do you see my picture? Is it appearing in the post or do you have to click on the attachment?

Someone, anyone all my friends?

I can see them after I click on the arrow and then click on the small pic and then the big pic shows.

[clair.de.lune]

Oh thanks! But I kinda wanted them to appear as a picture in the post, wonder if I'm doing something wrong?

Where's DDU I have chicken egg laying issues! I think they're clucky & hiding their eggs 😮

Naughty things X-(

Umm I just bought $300 worth of curtains yesterday and today I found all my curtains that I thought I'd thrown away X-(

It's official, plastic eggs DO NOT work, the chickies know and toss one or two out of the nest each time they are laying their egg. THey turn the eggs as they are laying and must sense the fake ones are 'bad'

Quick post, Hi Annie are your's clucky? I've found a collection of about 15 eggs that they've been laying in the garage, getting under the side. How can I encourage them to lay in the coop? We've blocked off the holes to the garage now but still no eggs in the coop? Only one clucky chook sitting on nothing. Crazy chickens

Got a clucky chook? Get some fertile eggs immediately and put them under her.
In a few weeks you'll have little chickies.

If it is the one in the garage, build her a nest in the spot she likes, you'll know where she is, not still hunting. Block it off after the eggs have hatched.

My girls aren't clucky yet, but I'm going to leave some of their own eggs in the nest for a few days.
I'm marking the eggs and will remove the older ones at about a week old.
