The chickens have arrived!

The chickens actually arrived over a week ago but I had my wisdom teeth out and totally underestimated the recovery required and haven't really felt like doing anything much...

Here are the last lot of before chicken photos:








John did a super job :) My friend Miranda thinks that it is Cluckingham Palace - ha ha ha

Here come the chickens!



First Eggs! Very Happy :)
We were given the chickens by John's grandfather and I think that they are Columbian Wyandotte's but I'm happy to be corrected if they're not... We have a rooster and 5 laying hens.














We are averaging 3 eggs a day at the moment so are producing ample eggs for our current needs. I am putting horse manure into the pen roughly every second day and the chickens are loving it - well they look happy to my novice chicken eye - ha ha ha

Cheers,
Trish and John
