After Butterscotch had gone Toffee wanted to sleep out in the run for the first three nights. I chased her into the shed each night and on the fourth night she went in by herself and has done so ever since then.<\/p>\n
The surprising thing is, that she has changed her habit from always sleeping by the shed wall, to sleeping in the middle of the perch in the position Butterscotch always sat in. At first I thought it may be a one off but she has roosted in this middle position every night since.<\/p>\n
I think perhaps she has settled into Butterscotch’s position of being top girl and therefore also her position on the roost.<\/p>\n
Last night I thought I would take a photo to demonstrate this. I took three in case there ended up being a blurred one and thought they were quite amusing so decided to use all three.<\/p>\n
I just love the way the girls look down from the perch and always wonder what they expect to see down below.<\/p>\n
