    I was only going to look - honest! But you know what happens at times like this ......

    Pandora, Esmerelda, Cordelia and Eileen are now happily discovering the delights of their new home :T

    Which poultry farm did you go to? Did you have everything already set up or was it a spur of the moment thing? I want to get a couple, we have a teeny uphill garden thats not good for anything, I grow veg and salad in tubs and have a length of the garden that I want to turn into a run for them, its just getting organised and a visit for potential chooks might spur me on :D
