Getting to know you....

Post by Benny&Co »

Things have really changed for the better since we got our Walk-in-Run for the girls, I'm seeing them in a whole new light and I guess they're getting to know me/us more too! {hug}

It was lovely here yesterday and I had such a nice time sitting in with them, watching all their antics. Thought you'd like some pictures...

Comfy chair, perfect for chooky watching :-D

Something nice to drink too....

Mmmmm something tasty on the underneath of my mock-croc!!

Treats before bed time

See what was I saying the other week out our Dottie-Diamond-Diva... here she is, caught in the act!! Going for the gems on my Birkies :-D

Aw lovely pics Bev. Love all your pink touches {hug} and the bird feeding table is a great idea. Where did you get that from?

Thanks Ellie, yes there's a lot of pink in our home and garden :-D :-D

We inherited the bird table from the previous owners, they left it in the garden. The girls seem to love it :-D

Thanks Lyn, yes we do - even though we've had our girls one and a half years now, we're seeing everything in a whole new light!

Was even saying to Marki earlier, I think he could be coming down with a dose of chickenitis!! {rofwl}

Lovel pics Bev, my iphone has 100's of pics and videos of my chickens. Every night when I come in from work I sit in the run for at least 10 mins, just watching them. Its very theraputic. And its so nice when a chicken comes and perches on your lap, my Bluebelle does almost every day.

p.s loving the pink crocs, I have some too - perfect for hosing off the chicken poop! {hug}
