    New girls are still a bit skittish but have learnt what treats are and are partial to homegrown chard (offered not helped themselves!)

    Sorry to hear that, MWC - never nice, but awful when you're away. Sending positive vibes.

    Oh MWC! I've just come back to the site after a few days away to your sad news. Keeping chooks is very rewarding but so, so hard at times. As you know, it was too much for me in the end.


    You give your girls a wonderful life and no one could keep all danger away from them. I think you are a most excellent chicken keeper and the new girls have lots to look forward to.

    Hope cold now passed and you are home and brighter.
    Made it to mortgage free but what a muddle that became

    In the event the proverbial hits the fan then co-habitees are better stashing their cash than being mortgage free !!

    Still headachy/coughy/spluttery/sneezy/snotty :(

    New girls are settling in ok - still skittish though.
