CLucking bonkers.

The student can be fairly easy to please - sometimes.

She is a happy person today, she had 4 chickens on Monday. These have duly been installed in their new shed where they seem quite happy. They have spent all their lives so far in a shed, this has been a bit of a culture shock for them as they now have a very small shed, small patch of ground and occasionally a whole field to themselves. They seem to be really relishing being able to scratch, run around, pick grass and other sort of natural chickeny things to do.

The student is happy, she sits in the field clucking at the chickens who sometimes cluck back at her. I was going to get some film footage and post it on you tube, but my love of life is too great.

Greater perhaps than Da Man the cat who, confronted with 4 chickens really had to go and have a look. I think he learnt quite quickly that a cat, especially a three legged one really should not mess with a chicken, several of whom seem to have a bit of attitude. The other cats pretty much worked that one out unaided, not da man, oh no, he was in their coop like a shot and out of it even quicker....
