I have just spent ages trying to work out what 'poo role DS2' meant.
Poor little fella - I bet that was very painful.
To the naughty roost for Mabel?

Poo role DS2 indeed! That must have stung. I hope his eye is OK. What does he think of chickens now?
My most scabby and revolting hen is trying to go broody and she's so vicious I have to lever her out of the nest by using a pitchfork! I'm not putting my hands anyway near her, and certainly not my eyes!!!

he said if he picks one again he'll wear sunglasses
His eye is better today, not so swollen but still bloodshot.

Amphibimum's chook tried to make Flameboy a Flamegirl the other day - I am now thinking he got a better deal than yours did!!!
