When I see to the chooks every day, we usually have a little chat about things, they always answer me, but heaven knows what they think I'm saying:
Btw, I'm feeding them grapes (I have to cut them up into small pieces!! - NO - I don't skin them!!)

This picture will show you just how big they are, they both weigh over 6lbs now, probably 6lbs 8oz now, cos it's a couple of weeks since I weighed them. That's about 3 1/2 Kilo, I think. Yes, I weigh them on the kitchen scales (I do have to disinfect them afterwards, the scales, I mean!)  My daughter feeding the chooks mealworms (wormies to the chickens!) |

They certainly seemed happy to see you. You need some lessons in chookie talk as well as budgie talk. You will be multilingual then.

Once you can catch them milliej they don't mind a cuddle too much, but its not one of their favourite things! |

Like any bird, I suppose ...... being contained means being preyed upon.  |

Great video. I too loved the line, "Georgie you're a pig" and thought how cuddly they looked.
