The Girls.

I know I have waxed lyrical about my 4 chickens on a few occasions but I am quite besotted with them. I'm still getting around 2 doz eggs a week even though they should really be going a bit off the lay by now. (so I'm told) I make a special mash for them which they love, so maybe that's encouraging them. They only get the mash every second day, they have feed in the chook-yard and get scraps as well as free-ranging. Don't want them too plump.

HENNY & PENNY.

Cackles had a foot problem but it's healed completely now and she's gone from a rather introverted girl to quite a happy little thing. She'll take food from my hand these days so that's a big difference from when we first inherited her and La-La. She's also become quite social with Henny and Penny too which is lovely; she was terrified of them when they first arrived.
They're quite fascinating to watch; quite the little social group. Bonnie still hates them and its the only time I dislike having floor to ceiling windows everywhere - the girls peck the window and the dog goes berserk. You'd really think she would have figured it out by now - they're stirring Bon; they're stirring!!
