then there were 4...

last night one of our chooks spent the night elsewhere..

the girls normally tootle off to their house around dusk and then we lock them in for the night..

but one of them had other ideas ..

we don't know how or where she went but my hubby spent two hours looking for her by torchlight..

so this morning when i let them out we were down to 4..

we had a cold night last night around 6 degrees after a day emp of 25 which didn't help with chook missing anxiety..

so this morning i made them a little hot rice porridge to start their day and hoped that they wouldn't miss their friend and out popped no 5!...

so now we are back to 5 thank goodness...
