Ep 157 | The Geese Leave Their Home | The Chickens Move In | From French Chateau to Farmhouse

Peter converts the Goose house to make it chicken friendly and safe for Annie and Sally - our last two remaining Hens. Peter moves the 'auto opening' chicken door from their old coup and builds a new door for the back of the old Goose house to help Anna with servicing their new home.

    You’ll have to install motion detection night vision cameras up next to protect the chicks, so Annie can relax.

    Great job, but there’s every chance the pole cat or whatever the animal was that killed the poor chickens will do the same again, please check the hen house and don’t trust the automatic door ❤🇬🇧

    Excellent idea of Anna's to cover with chicken wire for extra protection! 👍👍Watching Peter work, I was concerned about the narrow spacing in between the woven wood wall panels. There's truth in the old saying that if an animal with a flexible skeleton can get it's head through, the body will follow.

    Foxes and stoat like mammals are the only things apart from man that kill for the sheer pleasure of it. My friend’s children had a couple of hatches and some rabbits and baby rabbits a fox one night came along ripped the wire netting of the hutches and the wooden door and killed everyone of those bunnies.

    I am hoping that you are both feeling better after the polecat attack. It is understandable that the chickens do not, at the moment, want to return to where it happened. I understand that chickens have a sense of smell and they will have the scent of the creature in their house. A good scrub down with a vinegar solution may help there.

    Perfectly understandable they have trauma from what happened maybe you can build another in another part of the outbuilding and repurpose the old chicken housing. You can always clad over the lower half for the gaps in the outer fencing I guess. Great tool for sawing :)

    Hoping this conversion makes all feel more secure…..brilliant solution…..& Peter you so cleverly designed it with ease & safety in mind for the chickens (& Anna). Homeopathic Ignatia is a wonderful remedy for the grief and shock that you and Anna must still have from the trauma and you creating workable solution to decrease the frozen fears is such a fine way to deal with it all and move on with full enjoyment of keeping the chickens🌸
