None of my (3 Black Rock) birds are laying yet but they seem content enough in their run ... with the odd squabble which isn't unusual.</p><p>'Harold' appears to be a cut above the normal 'dumb' chicken too and can usually outwit me with consummate ease. I've cured 'his' flying antics by clipping his flight feathers. The problem was that the others followed 'Harolds' lead ... so I've clipped them all. 'Harold' went berserk when I clipped 'his' hens of course but seems to have settled down now ... still muttering and complaining of course......... :o(</p>mickboltonWed, 12 Aug 2009 09:57:21 -0000
