Chook sitting, yet again - Urban Permaculture for Annandale

Look whats making its way over our back fence - three burly men, and a chicken coop. 

This visitation comes complete with two red chickens,  and a hundreds and hundreds of eggs. Eggs-to-be.

Yes,  I've got another chicken-sitting gig at my brother's house here in Annandale. 

From my Rent-a-chook days, now  my 'Chicken sitter Available'  Classifides add photo

The 'Chicken Sitter Available' add I put on Gumtree has had 3,000 views. 

This means people need chicken-sitters. 

Put an add in yourself, and reap the rewards.

The chickens of Australia need you. 

Conversely, knowing there is a safety-net of willing chicken sitters out there makes it easier to become chook-owner, and still be free to go on holidays. Soon we will have a culture of A Chook in Every Garden.  

Thank-you Harriett, for these well-cared for chickens.

I took the clucking cardboard box, covered with a towel,  from its entourage of three strong men and two girls.
One of the men was very handsome, with a pristine complexion and soft redish-brown hair.

Off came the towel.

"Oh,  they are beautiful. And they look just like your brother" I said.
It just popped out.

Its not every day you get lovely men home-delivered.

Nadal and Pollo

Now Nadal and Pollo are roaming the Jungles of our back garden. 

They dig for grubs with the focus of a gambling addict, and letting out clucks of contentment and excitement every now and then. 

You just sit on the veranda, gaze, and thats how you feel too.

And while you sit and watch, you eat buttery-crunchy crepes made with eggs that were layed just as you started fixing breakfast.
