NEW CHICKEN HOUSE



You remember that we are going to get Rocky and Ringo the 2 little boy goats who need a home, well, we have started the process, we have to move the chickens to a new purpose built house and clean the area that the goats will occupy. After endless hours of Laura and Kait chicken wiring to make sure the baby goats, when they arrive will not get their heads stuck in the large hole netting already there, and me and Pete looking like Mr Bean and Co on some sort of illegal substance, chasing the chickens around in full view of our guests..who we didnt realise were watching!....trying to catch the chickens to put them in their new home, after several dives and nutmegs we did finally catch them all. I did have to shut Pete in the tiny chicken house at one point to catch the last one, but I kindly let him out!!!! They explored as soon as we relocated them, Mr Cockrel who last year told us he was gay is in fact trying to be straight again, no idea whats going on there, last year he pulled his feathers out to look like a hen and sat on eggs....this year he has his feathers and is in charge....wonder what next year will bring!
