The girls

We are looking after a friend's chooks for a few months and have fallen for them. The balance in the family has swung to an even keel. I am no longer the only female.
The girls are brilliant at dealing with all compost. They dig over the ground. They are so peaceful to look at and listen to.
This morning we had our first weird egg - shell free!! The girls had also smashed one egg. My egg allergy kid is on chook duty this week so he couldn't touch those eggs. Easy clean up and removed both to the compost bin so that I don't encourage them to eat their own.
Love chooks!!
