our poor little ladies....

We absolutely love our chooks and always have such a lovely time with our gorgeous chookies. They are so beautiful and quiet that they would walk right up to Baby Moo to say hello and let us pat them. They eat grain right out of our hands and are always happy for a quick hold....

that was until the events took place....our very own chook massacre....

the farm dog 'Soot' came up for a visit....next thing we know - we are down 2 chooks and have some very very upset and scared chookies that luckily survived the attack. The poor darlings were so scared....

So the next job for Mr H is to build a little 'exercise' pen for our chookies so they may be safe while free from their nests....which sucks as I absolutely loved for them to be able to roam around the compound and check out their surroundings at their own pace. However, Soot is the Queen of Wondalli so....it looks like the chookies will have to earn their right to roam free and climb their way up the pecking order!!

RIP our lovely ladies who didn't survive the savage attack and I promise to protect your friends from all predators....well will try my best anyway!!
