I posted that on my facebook. It is so sweet, wish my chickens gave hugs. One of our ex battery hens used to jump up on our laps when we sat in the garden, she was so lovely and trusting when you consider how she had been treated.

Very interesting. I learnt a lot about chickens, hens and cockerels.

Very, very interesting. Thank you, both, for bringing the humble chook to the fore. We have often talked about keeping chooks, but our resident pythons are a big deterrent. As an off-shoot, does anyone have any experience with guinea fowl??? They do tend to fend off snakes. |
