sorry had to share.......

Post by smam »

I love sitting in the garden watching my girls doing their chickeny business. My little boy has learnt their names now and loves helping mummy with them. I have never known a kid enjoy looking after animals as much as him.


Heres some piccies of the crew today <3<3<3<3

Great pictures. My 4 year old grandson always looks for eggs when he visits and is learning so much. One day I'd been out late the day before and shut them in when I got home without looking. So he picked up the eggs and went back to tell his mum excitedly "there were 5 eggs and 4 hens, so 1 laid 2 and one laid 1 and....." Another day there were 3 at the door of the run "so 1 must be in the house". He knows how to recognise chickweed and picks it from the veg patch to give them.
How do keep the hen muck off the clothes if they dust bathe in the slide?

Thanks everyone for the lovely replies.

Im very proud my my dudey, he hasnt got bored of them and loves the egg hunt and his dippy eggs.y daughter is the same and loves helping with them even though she is more of a hinderance sometimes. When we lost one she wanted to see Doris and said a prayer and good bye so theyre understanding the cycle of life too!

Dont let the beautiful face fool you with Cola cat! Shes the devil in discise!!! (sorry minds gone blnk!)

I love katy perrys comb too!! Shes a very aloof lady but accidently landed on my shoulder earlier for a stroke!!!

Mo, I pooh pick the garden everyday but tbh they dont pooh in the dust bath jist everywhere else heehee!! Your granson sounds adorable!! Im hoping that Dylan keeps his interest in them as its so good for them for all areas of learning,social especially. if he scares on of the chiclens he says sorry to them and blows a kiss <3 x
