Recently Guinness and Irwin have started hanging
around the chook palace every morning when I head out around dawn to let the
girls out. They have a 5 acre hillside paddock to graze and can often be not
seen for days at a time. I initially thought they were interested in the
chooker moles but, it would seem, it’s my enlightening conversation and a hug
that attracts them. They have more food than they could possibly ever eat – no matter
how hard they try – but they seem to be only interested in a loving hug. BTW ever
seen an oval donkey – I’ll try and get a front on photo one day… hilarious FAT OVAL
DONKEYS!

They just want me to scratch their necks
and there’s nothing nicer than being able to unconditionally hug the neck of a trusting
donkey that has previously been so traumatised by human contact that it has
taken literally years to get to this stage. How more satisfying can a hug be?
(In the words of the princess on MKR…) “Yeaaahhhh”.
