Garden life...


The chickens are still enjoying life in the garden ("yard" for our North-American cousins!) and yesterday was lovely. Today is windier so they are more under the trees; three eggs today and Henny Penny's have gone from "small" to "medium" size! Two were eaten for breakfast and the other one was used to coat some pork to make Schnitzel for dinner. The man who is going to take the cockerels away rang today; they will have to go soon as there are too many noisy boys in one suburban garden!

Errrm....I'm stuck!!!


Busy day today! Firstly the chickens had to be kept in while the lawns were mowed...which wasn't what they wanted after all the escaping and getting cooped up that happened yesterday! Secondly there were three eggs today so we think that "chicken with no name" has come into lay. The final thing was when nine of them were standing and calling because this hen was stuck on the washing line with her feet on the washing and her neck in front of the line! Hectic hens!
