I was getting pretty well set up for getting backyard chickens this Spring - I got the hen house and run and everything - and now the chicken FB group I'm in is all talk of how to protect against bird flu and I don't know I may hold off for a bit.
I'm near where the first cases have been discovered in New Zealand.
And one of the big things you can do to protect your chickens is to keep them in a fully fenced in run all the time and I am not set up for that and I don't really want to do it. I was setting up for chooks to have free run of the back garden all day and shut into a run for safety at night.

Proud mama hen hatched two baby chicks early today, and we're hoping for more over the next few days. She's staying on the nest, so she seems fairly certain more are coming!

Our hens won't drink under a roof. Eat, sleep, poop, and lay eggs, but not drink.
Bowl of water on the back step? Fill 'er up, we've nearly emptied it already.
Bowl of water in the coop (near the feeder)? ABOMINATION.
Waterer on the back step? Sure, why not.
Waterer in the doorway of a doorless and derelict shed in the chicken run? Not going near it; would rather die.
Waterer randomly out in the run? At last, we were DYING!

The destructive might of the chicken horde has been held back by the chicken-wire-with-assorted-additions fence for a couple of days now, so I have been bold and sowed shade-loving flowers in the bed under the kitchen window.
It was built as a raised bed, but whoever built it didn't consider that burying the foundation's air vents under a foot or so of soil was not a great idea.
Hopefully the seeds don't mind a heavy clay soil under a thin layer of rich loam.

My chicken tried to EAT a button right off my shirt! While I was wearing it!
Luckily it was well sewn on, but now she keeps stalking me in the garden with her beady little eye fixed on the button in question.
The button is made of coconut shell, and it's the sort you button a long tab to if you have your sleeves rolled up (I didn't).
Now I'm worried about what else on or about my person she might take it into her tiny little brain to consider comestible.

Our junior hen stopped laying in the coop! Provoked, it appears, by me mucking it out. No longer able to contemplate a pile of poo while laying, she's been forced to squeeze into a patch of mud under a pile of prunings in order to lay her eggs in sufficiently sordid surroundings.
The senior hen looks like she'll be coming into lay soon, so hopefully her good example will jostle the wayward witless one back into more hygienic habits.

I've realized I've posted very few chicken pictures since the baby chick rave cave days. So, meet two of our roosters: Caesar in front, our benevolent one, and Nero in the back who lives up to his name and always kind of is eyeing me like he'd like to kill me but hasn't decided how yet.
Maybe this will be a chicken thread? May as well introduce you all to some of the residents!

The oviposition saga continues!
The junior hen has continued to lay eggs at two day intervals in Nest Box No.3 (previously used to hold food, prior to the Hedgehog Incidents).I have been leaving each egg (dated in pencil) until it is joined by its successor, so as to reinforce the idea that this is indeed the right place to lay eggs. (A Kinder Surprise capsule makes an unconvincing decoy, I have learned.)
Yesterday's egg was therefore still sitting in Box No.3 today when the junior hen elected to a) kick it on to the floor of the coop and then b) lay an egg in Box No.1.
Box No.2 houses water and shell, so will probably remain free of eggy deposits.
Probably.

Wonders will never cease! Our junior hen, after spending a day and a half visiting every muddy nook and cranny in the garden, finally laid an egg...in the coop! And not just in the coop, actually in a nest box!!
Previous favoured locations have included: clump of overgrown grass, pile of prunings, mudpatch under leaning fence, and under the perch, hazardously close to the nightsoil.
Long may this outbreak of unexpected good sense last.

Seen at two separate houses in my walk "down the street" today. Looks like chooks are popular here 😊
