Free !!!

With all but my layers at the workshop, i have given the layers free roam of all the veg patch, now they have loads of room to wander about, even the green house too.. I have just opened their house an d let them out to this new freedom, talk about bewilderment LOL, its taken them 10 minutes to work out whats going on, they are now spread all over their new home.

Mahogony Planter

I have just made this from Mahogany reclaimed from a sound proofing factory, I'm not sure what they had used it for, but it turns out quite nicely, i hadn't got any oil to finish it with so i used a drop of veg cooking oil mixed with some meths, it works LOL,

Hazel has died

sorry to have to report that Hazel has passed away, in the end she was clean of mites and seemed unable to process the food she was eating.

Hazel update

She is doing realy well and following me around the workshop, she had realy bad mites, in the last 2 weeks i have dusted her 3 times and have been cleaning out her box every 3 days, boy you wouldn't recognise her

Ok so Hugh F-Whitingstall said it first, I have moved in another house, this one is for my layers, its got a temp pen, i am going to make it much bigger for them in the next few days, have a look at the pictures, oh yes, there are some of the new house i will be using for the rare breeds, nice and cosy..

PHEW !!!! broke out in a sweat

Its been one heck of a week, thanks you all that have ordered houses and runs, i have lost another 5 pounds in weight.... LOL.... ok yes i did need to loose some :p

i have a cockerel thats now turn out to be hen, she is not very well, when i first noticed, on inspection she had mites, so she has been well dusted and pampered, Deb's the Mill house manager has named her " Hazel " cus of her eyes, lol I am a bloke so i don't notice these things...
I have had her loose in the workshop, she seems to like pecking around, treated her to a sticky fruit bun yesterday afternoon, and at night she has her own small house to sleep in, i really want her to live, as i have hatched her myself......
