A little Hen update

by Janeshens @ 2008-04-18 - 13:49:41

Yesterday I looked out of the window and saw Bella enjoying the sunshine and having a dust bath, I am amazed at how well these two girls have adapted to a completly foreign world in only about 3 weeks. Now when we go out in the garden they run up to the mesh and are looking for food, Bella just gobbles everything up whilst Greta isn't always that interested she usually just picks at the food which one time drove my little bantem hens crazy I had given them some pasta, a favorite, they eat theres whole whilst Bella was eating hers slowly. Both Petra and Sophia were trying to get through her mesh run to get her pasta until Bella managed to swollow it. The girls then noticed that Greta had just left her peice of pasta in her run, well Petra and Sophia just went crazy tying to get to that pasta unfortuantly for them with no luck.

Our backyard civil war seems to have calmed down, the original girls seem to have lost interest in the new girls and are now ignoring them,until one day when they are let loose in the garden, I think then the trouble will start again but that won't be for some time.

Jane
