Number of eggs = 2 (Miss B and Miss M)
Number of chickens who stayed put in their bit of the garden = 5 (Miss B was naughty and jumped a 4' fence into my bit of the garden...)

Go Miss B, Go!A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effortMortgage Balance = £0

I once lost Miss E for a few hours only to find she'd somehow navigated a 6' fence and was in nextdoor's garden happily munching on their roses :eek: Fortunately they were away at the time and I never confessed.

Miss F used to like visiting the neighbour's garden. He had a 4' tall bug hotel (aka pile of twigs!) at the bottom of his garden and she liked to jump up and lay her eggs on it. I've no doubt that she used to munch on his plants and poop on his lawn as well but he never complained :rotfl:Mortgage at highest (April 2008): ~£195,000

Hi MWC
Glad you had a nice afternoon with your Great Aunt - what a great achievement to reach 100.
Hope you are feeling better and Miss B has returned to her side of the garden!!!
