Broody Chickadee


17 month old Chickadee has gone broody a total of three times. 
She was broody in December 2015, January and March 2016.
 Broody Chickadee fluffed herself up and was upset
when we removed her from the nesting box in the coop.
BFC = Broody Fluffy Chickadee!
 
Chickadee gets flighty when she's broody.
Here she is standing on top of the coop.
 Chickadee looses her balance.
Broody chickadee jumped on top of the outdoor chair looking
for a new nesting place after being kicked out of the coop.
Nestle remains on the ground in the background and is not impressed!
Watch out Chickadee, if you stand on the table for too long,
you might end up as a chicken dinner?! lol! 
 More fluffy broody antics.
 Chickadee's turkey impersonation with her tail spread!
Nestle shows Chickadee's who's boss when
it comes to feeding time at Dine-a-chook.
Nestle eats the custom made seed mix from the feeding
station whilst Chickadee eats the left overs on the ground.
 Nestle takes a drink of water from Wet-a-Chook 
whilst Chickadee takes a feed of seed.
