Of all the chooks we have kept, these three are the youngest and have alot to learn.  Usually as night falls chooks usually go to their pen and perch on the roost for the night.  No, not these.  They have gone to the nesting boxes to spend the night and this is not right.  So what we have had to do this past week, is armed with a torch, we physically pick them up one at a time and place on the perch.  Its so funny.  Last night one chook took the initative and jumped up but the other two settled underneath her as I had covered the nesting boxes.  So now these two need extra lessons.  Tonight we'll be down there again teaching chooks how to roost.
