MASSACRE 14 - my simple mind convinced me that I should try my hand at organic chicken farming... Wild creatures of all descriptions thrive here on the savannahs of eastern Namibia, so why not chickens? Maryke Pheiffer very kindly sourced 10 chicks in South Africa, and had them flown to Windhoek as a birthday treat for me. We settled them in a specially constructed large pen, planted with a variety of treats and fitted with a snug coop. Last evening Maryke and Hanns-Louis Lamprecht went out to make them comfortable for their first night and place a hot water bottle in the coop, when all they found was a bloody massacre of feet and beaks - the Jack Russels (Jofie Lamprechts and mine) had made it there before them, dug a tunnel under the fence, and dealt with the cute, fluffy competition in the only way they knew how.... We are now all in mourning, and Jack, Umbra and Schatzie are confined to the naughty corner.
