I made a 'Chick-ery!'
So...today I made a 'Chick-ery' in the old 'Chook' pen.The eggs Sheng-Mu has been sitting on are, hopefully, due to hatch early next week and so we will move her and the eggs down here over the weekend. In the past we have had a few chicks disappear, presumably taken by birds of prey or even Kookaburras. The old 'Chook' pen is open to the sky but when I built Fort Yudhisthira I netted it over with the intention that future chicks growing up in there would be safe from attacks from the sky. However Fort Yudhisthira is currently confining the Idiot Birds and I doubt any young chicks would be safe co-habiting with that unpredictable, mad bunch and so...enter the 'Chick-ery'. Hopefully I have made it escape proof...we will see.
