Chicken Update !!

 
 
A quick chicken update ... look who is standing !!  The little brown hen who was off her legs when she arrived.  She is making good progress, eating and much happier, still weak but she has started to potter around the shed.

 
A lovely reward, I've already had 20 eggs from my new arrivals...

 
After a couple of days, they have perked up and most are active around the shed, the weak one is having a little sit down in the background, but she is making steady progress.

 
A close inspection from one nosey chicken...

 
This is a view of the big boys grazing today, I've been out planting some bulbs in the garden.  Its nothing like May, the grass is making an attempt to grow, but you have to look closely !!

Such good news on the hens! Soon they will be thriving.

My hens are ex battery ones - only three left now but I have had them about 4 years! They roam for miles - only trouble is they will peck my legs! That's gratitude for you!
