It is so wet......

[Shirls]

here. We have had so much rain recently, being as I have clay soil, the water has nowhere to go. The chooks have nowhere dry to sit, even their run leaks like a sieve and has a very little dry area. Tried to get some bark chippings today to no avail, so got some straw instead and put it where they like to sit when the weather is dry. I know it won't stay dry for long, but they LOVED it. They have done everything but sit on it. They have rearranged it, picked out some seeds, walked off with bits in their beaks.....

its never stopped raining here since october

It feels the same here BudgieS90, but I must say we have been fairly lucky in East Kent comparing to the midlands and where you are. I feel so sorry for all the flood victims (and the animals too), my heart goes out to them all.

Wet, oh I think Cumbria needs to invent (?) a new word for wet, I wonder if there's one in the local dialect! Horrendous up here, some roads still closed, bridges down, people's plans destroyed and businesses ruined, however the tourist people want us to tell everybody that Cumbria (Lakes District they mean I think) is open for business! Depends where you go, York and parts of Lancashire have suffered terribly too and it's still much too warm for December January! Global warming .....human greed! We're supposed to look after the planet not destroy it....sorry.....I feel a rant coming on so I'll

Love those chooks though Shirls, the fluffy bums are just heartwarming to see

Looks like fun was had by these gorgeous girlies Shirls. Think the weather is horrendous everywhere, I can't remember ever seeing as much rain as we have had lately

Nice to see the fluffy soggy bums are well

Well, the hay might have been meant for sitting on, but if other uses can be found for it, hey, why not??? They certainly don't look any worse off for being wet and soggy, in fact they don't look wet at all.
