Lending a helping wing
« on: April 30, 2013, 07:54:56 pm »
This chicken decided to move into the piglet creep before they were born.  After they were born she refused to move out and sat there putting up with all kinds of physical abuse from the piglets  :thinking:  We couldn't understand why she didn't just move out until we went in and picked one of the piglets up - and she went mad -   she obviously thinks they're her babies! This is her second litter now as we swapped pigs over, but she's just as devoted  :roflanim:

mmm chickens are a bit stupid really are'nt they . love it.

Great picture though = what if she lays an egg and a pig eats it? ( this was discussed on a previous thread about giving pigs spare eggs - and got quite amusing.)
