Easter Eggs Wanted

As the chickens have yet to lay their first eggs we are in bad need of some eggs for easter breakfast!!

The chickens continue to grow well and are developing their own characters and destroying parts of the garden as they grow, but as yet we await the first eggs, but with the nest boxes at the ready and some egg boxes empty on the shelf watch this space.



At the bottom of the garden attached to the shed was a long disused nest box, but this year after feeding the birds through the harsh winter we have managed to get a pair of tits to make their home in the old nest box, for the last few weeks they have been building the nest and and preparing for the upcoming young.


With this winter only just over Ade has been busy splitting logs and preparing a stock of wood for next winter, our log burner heats the whole house and the warming glow of a log fire takes some beating.
