I allowed them out in the garden late this evening, after a while they began to get a bit bullied by the ohters. I went down and sat on the steps and look what happened!!



I got poohed on too, boy it smells Confused Wink

Mojo, you're always such a charmer!!!

I cannot believe they decided to come and sit on me, I haven't handled them loads, specially since they've been in the Ark. It's amazing that because I was there first Mum, they haven't forgotten, even wanting to sit on the most comfy bit and climbing up trying to get under my chin Laughing
I'd do it more, but they don't seem to realise I'm not meant to be poo'd on Rolling Eyes Confused

And this evening, I managed not to be poo'd on Laughing



I think maybe another one is a hen, she has a pea type comb, and seems a little smaller than the other 2 cockerels Very Happy
