Cock a doodle doo!!!

When we first got together and started talking it soon became obvious to both of us how many things we have in common and one such thing was the desire to keep a few chickens, both for the fun factor and the supply of fresh eggs. Everybody we have spoken to about chickens have expressed their interest in chickens and how they would also like to keep some but haven't got the space or the time, well fair not  we will happily let you adopt a chicken once we have the hen house and run ready over the next few weeks.

The hen house arrived and yesterday we put it together its a Cocoon 1000 and we were both impressed by the quality and how easy it was to put together.


The list of adoptees for the chickens now stands at 3 with Florence, Linda and Amelia already signed up who's next.

Within a few minutes the hut was finished and now we need to build a run and make it fox proof before we can get a few chucks.


We have been feeding the birds in the garden the last few weeks and now we are starting to get some regular visitors 


With the weather a bit milder but very wet we have moved a few more fish over, today a few more made the short trip across to their new home 


Once again many thanks to Andy for all his help and well done on getting a job mate.
