Tuesday , when Les and I arrived home from cutting wood …Scott a friend of ours had brought us 16 little Brown Hens! So pretty and brown and they lay eggs! Now we have 17 hens! Scott is bringing us a pretty Americana Rooster soon!
This afternoon we turned the hens out of the barn so they could scratch and do their jobs! I so love the hens talk! errrr errrrr !
Well you can guess that the hens did not know where home is yet. So Drover helped herd the chickens!
I kept saying “easy Little Buddy!” They are not fast like sheep! He has never actually had a flock of chickens to move. But he did a fine job! and in a few days I have not a doubt he will be doing the job with no help from me. (See… he did not know where they belonged either!) Soon as Drover masters the chicken work I will start Timber!
The puppies will meet the chickens tomorrow!
