Unfortunately for both me and the chooks, they have to have their bums washed from time to time. Apart from keeping them clean it keeps away all the 'nasties' they can be infected with. Because of their fluffy bums they really do get quite dirty sometimes. Washing them is not an easy task, especially with Georgie because of her weight, I have to hold her in my left arm with my hand round her legs, head down - which tips her bum up in the air (DON'T laugh) and then I proceed to give her a wash. It takes quite a while to get dried poops out of those lovely fluffy feathers. Then I dry her off as much as I can with kitchen roll and she gets some grapes for the inconvenience. I then wash Bea, she's a lot lighter and easier to manage and she has her grapes to follow. They are such good girls!
I thought you would like a picture of their rear ends as they are drying out in the sunshine. If you look close you can see the skin showing through!!! hehe
and a nice picture of Georgie - the front end!!
Forgot to mention starlingqueen, I love your chickens combs, the are much more developed than my chooks, but perhaps that is because they are a different breed.
