Life looks pretty sweet for her, snuggled up warm underneath her mother's wing with the constant reassuring sound of her mother's gentle purring.
Unfortunately it rained all day so no venturing outside.
The rain did not stop the delivery of this lot though! I can't wait to see it all up and running. The magpies are becoming quite aggressive and territorial with the chooks so the sooner I can cut off their food supply the better.
The Wet-A-Chook water system will put an end to having to deal with those moudy, clumsy, flimsy green waterers that fill up around the rim with dirt and debris... 
And the Dine-A-Chook will reduce the amount of feed currently going to wild birds and mice.
This equipment will pay for itself in a month just by the amount of waste it saves.
Just when you think you know your chooks and their behaviour is predictable they do something you've never seen before...
This lot, who usually roost in the main chookhouse, decided to sleep together sitting down in the nursery area above Miss Lilly and her chicks. I know it's a bit cold today but this is ridiculous.
Tomorrow I will try to get photos of the Dine-A-Chook feeder in action.
