Funny chooks.

A few months ago when cleaning out the gutters we discovered just how much chook food was getting consumed by the local sparrows rather than our chickens. Apparently the sparrows like to pick up the food and then fly up onto the edge of the roof and consume it there, not only wasting chicken food, but blocking up the gutters with their mess as well. So, we bought a Chooketeria to try and get around the problem. This requires the chickens to remember how to open the thing, which is as simple as putting a foot on the pedal out the front. Our chickens still haven't quite got the concept - they do it, but it seems to take them a little while to remember how each morning. Have a look at the video to see what I mean!
