Here's Mother Goose, the hen and her little Goslings, now happily ensconced in the Eglu, this gives them much more space to move around for the moment. They are growing very quickly, well I guess they have to if they want to end up looking like this .....
...in just a couple of months.
They eat soooooo much grass and anything else they can find, clover, weeds etc. Proper little lawn mowers, so much so that I have to move the Eglu around half way through the day so they can be on fresh grass. We are even thinking of bringing them, in the Eglu closer to the house to keep the grass here in check and leave the grass in Chicken World for the other chickens.
It's raining here, yet again, so after checking the chickens I will be in the greenhouse, planting the next round of veggie seeds. We are currently eating Lettuce, Mixed Leaves, Radishes and Pea Shoots from the Veggie Patch, not so good, we already had lots more of our homegrown foods on the menu by this time last year. The Strawberries are still small and green, and the Cherry Tree has the amazing crop of.........ONE CHERRY. If it's still there I will go and get you a picture of it, every morning though, I go over convinced it will have been eaten by something overnight. Luckily I don't like Cherries and Lovely Hubby will be able to enjoy it all by himself.
The strange weather (and my lack of poly tunnel) has a lot to answer for.
