So our lovely optometrist Liesl (The Bay Optometrist) phoned Shirley to say she had something for the kids. She arrived back with 2 baby chickens, obviously I had lots to say in the matter.
The kids and Lola were in love. Of course they had to sleep inside the 1st night.
Saturday they clean out the cage and made it more chicken friendly. While that was going on we let the chicks range around the garden. We had to lock Lola up, because she wanted to lick them to death.
They are now settled into their new abode. The kids are permanently begging to play with them, they are now rationed to two 15 minute sessions a day, and a 1/2 free range in the back garden.
For those in the know, the father was a Brahma and the mother a Silkie
This place is getting more like a farm every day!
