Grape Temptation

Summer time is grape season in Australia.

The 2 Happy Hens love to shelter under the grape vine 

growing over the trees on very hot summer days.

Chilli scratches in the chaff in front of the grape vine.

Chilli is tempted by a bunch of grapes hanging from the vine.

Hmmm... those grapes look juicy and are within jumping distance.

Nestle makes an appearance but is not as tempted by the grapes as Chilli is.

 Lydia gave Chilli a bunch of grapes to eat.

= Unidentified Flying Chicken!

The blob on the left hand side of the photo is Nestle flying!

 

One wing flying action!
It is hard to see Nestle's left wing in this photo.

Nestle flies from the window towards Gerard who is carrying

a blue bag of the chicken's favourite food: grated CHEESE!
Chilli walks behind Gerard and is not far away.
Lydia will have to get some photos for a "Cheesy Chicken" blog post!

A Life of Luxury

Nestle loves massage under her wings.

She is very spoilt and has up to 6 massages a day!

What a life of luxury!

She also loves having her back rubbed near her tail.

Nestle loves pats, just like a pet cat or dog!

Time for Chilli to have a cuddle

whilst Nestle stands on Gerard's shoulder!

Hallway Rest

 The 2 Happy Hens were allowed inside to do some preening in the hallway.

 Nestle takes a little nap whilst Chilli preens her fluff.

 Now it's time for both Happy Hens to rest.

 Chilli chills out whilst Nestle sits like a proper hen.

 Snooze time......

 
Nestle sits very upright and alert.

Nestle walking down the hallway.

This photo of Nestle reminds us of Curry

(must be a similar pose for the camera?)

House Inspection

The 2 Happy Hens were curious one day
and walked into the house.

That will teach us for leaving the door open
and temporarily unattended!

The 2 Happy Hens were uncertain about
 their unfamiliar indoor surroundings.

Chilli looks around the corner.

Inspector Chilli is fully alert as she enters the kitchen. 

Nestle looks up to see what's new

(she is probably looking at the kitchen table and chairs).

Chilli crouches and plays it safe whilst
 Nestle looks straight at the camera.

Double Egg Time

The 2 Happy Hens both needed to lay an egg around the same time one morning. 

Chilli jumps in the nesting box with Nestlé.

Chilli pokes her head under Nestle's breast looking for an egg. 

Chilli squeezes in the box with Nestle.

Chilli takes a nap.

Nestle looks a little inconvenienced.

Chilli turns around whilst Nestle tries to nap.

A very fluffy view of Chilli's behind!

Double egg time!

Chilli's egg is on the left and Nestle's egg is on the right.
