Holly – relaxing

I'll get moving later in the day...no hurry.

Chook annex rebuild - Part 1A

Planning to rebuild

The main chook run has a annex which is one of our previous gazebo's with wire mesh around the sides, chicken wire above and a tarp over that.

I'm going to pull all that down and rebuild the annex (same as the main run) with star pickets, poles, pine framing with gable and a poly roof - and new gate/door.

New chooks – day two

Day two and the little Pekins (Bella, Peaches & Honey) are settling in well - so entertaining!

Chook Cam - temporary setup.

Setup a wireless colour camera in the run to monitor the little girls with the receiver connected to the Soniq 32" TV in the kitchen/meals area. As posted earlier I'll get the Cocoon Outdoor HD Wireless IP Camera from ALDI next Wednesday.

New Chooks 2015 – Day one

First full day at Meadowbrook Mansion for the little chooks, lots of playtime, eating & drinking, resting - repeat the cycle. Got a bit confused at bedtime by the look of it, seemed to be settling down in a corner outside their box LOL so we went and guided them in.

New chooks–first night

First night at Meadowbrook Mansion for the little Pekin bantams.

Didn't take long for the little ones to find their accommodation, been in there for a few hours now.

Buying some more bantam Pekins

Off this morning to Abundant Layers in Emerald to get three Pekins, 2 x buff and 1 x white. Spent the last couple of days building a box for them for the integration period and fencing off one end of the run. Samsung Galaxy is on charge so had to use the little Kodak M753 for the first shots.
