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 ๐Ÿ™‚

Im gonna get chooks one day, I dont care if they dont lay, I just love them, with their cute personalities.

Used to have chooks when I was married, one day I went outside and found one dead, the exhusband had broken its neck in a fit of rage because it had pecked at him

hope you never henpecked him, froot??

and I can see why he is an ex.

We might keep a couple of the pens, in case we decide to get some chookens in the future. Not worth having them atm. with OH away so much, I don't go through many eggs, and when I do buy them, they are from people who have their own chookens.


any news on the egg yet??

Couldn't get the grey leopard one we saw as it would have been too big for our chickens.

And yes he gave us the rooster
