unlikely partnerships
This is Scooter 'sharing' some slightly out of date yoghurt with the chickens. I wasn't sure about the correctness of giving possibly sour yoghurt to chickens and dogs - but they seem to have pulled up alright.
Scooter loves the chickens. So much that she is constantly digging little holes under their fence so they can come out and play with her. And by 'play with her' I mean she wants to herd them into the one space and then lick their necks. The chickens stand up for themselves ok - they peck her on the nose if she becomes too loving.
They are going very well these chooks. They eat anything I throw in there, and produce four eggs a day. Their contented 'brrrrkkk' is lovely in the morning, and they are good at aerating the soil (kicking up the mulch).
You keep them in line Scooter. You chickendog.

ReplyDeleteThose chickens like they of "traditional build" if you know what I mean!
