...Nice post, love the little video of the chiccies.<br />We had 5 day old silkie chicks last year but just as they started laying,the fox struck and got them all.My youngest was devastated as it was she who found the empty ark and blood spatters. But we have 4 more girls left in a different run and they have been brilliant. Chickens are just so much fun to watch. I can sit and watch them scratching around for ages.<br /><br />http://frugalfreesiahandmadeandhomemade.blogspot.comfrugal freesiahttp://frugalfreesiahandmadeandhomemade.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-40250576655192503492011-10-24T20:17:05.073+01:002011-10-24T20:17:05.073+01:00Sue-this is one my favourite posts from you!

(They hold up to 50kg of feed)<br /><br />Our dog Sophie is a Border Collie from farm stock so she has a constant need to 'round up' things, hence the running backwards and forwards round and round the chicken enclosure. She was the same when we had the pigs, running round and round their paddock thinking she was keeping them all in order....lol. No wonder she's always tired at night!<br /><br />Sue xxSuehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04177854521955532744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8468906973954014850.post-54971997011161618072011-10-24T13:11:19.150+01:002011-10-24T13:11:19.150+01:00P.S.

They were always my favorites to watch. What a beautiful bunch of girls and boys you have! I love your whole set up for them! <br /><br />What are the big black things on three wooden legs? Are they feeders? I've not seen those before...where did you get them?<br /><br />Keep the photos coming of life on the farm!
