It was a photo processing day today – lots of rain and cold weather!
Thought I would share the photos I took yesterday of the chickens having a bath! We let them out into the main yard because the weather was so nice.
They made a bee-line for the macrocarpas where there is no grass and proceeded to dig themselves into their holes and cover themselves with dust. They are so funny to watch and they were clearly thoroughly enjoying themselves
The reason Jeff is not so keen to have them out in the yard so much is because they dig these potholes that he runs into while mowing the lawns
They practically turn themselves inside out in the process
They can play dead too…
The earth moving can get quite vigorous at times –
Chooks! Free entertainment and a side order of eggs!
Cheers!
I love your posts and all the pictures you add. If you ever go into the B&B business, I would love to stay at your place. I’d help gather eggs and pick veggies! LOL
lol – Thanks Kathy!! We totally take random people so if you are down our way – get in touch!! (Gathering ‘the egg’ these days is not a taxing job, but there are always the weeds haha)
