Heeeeeeeeeellllllllooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo,
Some of you might remember me. Others will not. I have been too busy to post on here - and don't even mention about being too busy to brew. Costing me a fortune at the bottle shop!
Seems like the kids are getting a bit older and the house is starting to run a little smoother so I have a little (very little!) spare time.
First task. Build chicken coup. This was done with wood left over from my extension, no plans, little measuring and a lot of swearing. Second task, get chickens. This was done yesterday morning, four of them, 1 year old and looking a little baldy around the neck from being pecked by other chickens.
3 eggs so far in 24 hours and I am well chuffed. I have never had chickens before and don't know anything about them.
I will post some photos of the coup (all 400Kg of it - was meant to be moveable around the garden - but I cannot lift it!) later.
Anybody else got chickens or advice on chickens?
