Happy chooks = "happy eggs"

What is the bantam rooster with the hens?
Indeed, looks like a good flock you have
I have 2 but would like more
Our late Staffy Bear was good with our previous chooks. When Bear died we got a Staffy pup Jessie. Jessie is not chook friendly. One night in a storm a branch fell and knocked the gate open. We let Jessie outside early, then when we went out to feed the chooks it was a massacre, dead chooks everywhere and our 4yo at the time walked out the backdoor straight after me.... Tears.
Anyway, she loves chooks and asked us to get new ones. The gate is now double latched.... and a little deterrent to keep the dog away....

I went to our local fish place and got a bag of off cuts skin, meaty bit and giving a bit of that to them twice a day...My Sussex are doing the same.
Originally were locking them up every night but got lazy and eventually stopped locking them up (we live in a suburban area). Did eventually lose a chicken to a fox in the middle of the night. We managed to scare it off before it got the others but had to bury the dead one. Another was attacked but fully recovered in a week or 2.
she layed a perfect egg this morning.....go figureI have been buying eggs from this op shop that are the biggest i've seen. Every egg has a double yolk and they are delicious. You can check out their website to see that the chickens are fed well and free range (happy). They can't sell to supermarkets because the eggs are too big.
These eggs cost $5 a dozen. Brilliant value.
Anyway if interested they sell them at helping hands 66 oakover road preston.

I did grind some eggshell into porridge yesterday so maybe that helped
Little faces go whiteI have my chickens left over yoghurt the other day.
It was very humourous to watch
