By this time, the animals' lives are getting to be really hard. They don't have much to eat and they are having to work really hard. But they do not want the people around them to know this. So they decide to fool the people by fooling Whymper. They are counting on Whymper to spread the word that the animals are doing great.
So they do things like filling up the feed bins with sand and then putting a bit of food on top to make it look like the bins are completely full. They have various animals talk about how the rations have been increased at times and places where Whymper can hear.
That way, they make him think the farm is doing fine.
