Cinnamon Posted March 25, 2006 Share Posted March 25, 2006 When Omlet announce the mk3 eglu- 1 - Phone immediatly & order an orange one,along with a couple of Glug 'n' Grubs 2 - Phone Good Life & order 2 Sapphires & 2 jasmines 3 - Buy a couple of decent bottles of red- Valpollicella should do it 4 - Feed said wine to The Hubby,followed by Nigellas Greek lamb Stew & home made chocolate cake 5 - Say how the little bit of land between the chicken pen & the shed is all bare & wasted.Especially as I have done no planting of shrubs in this area for some reason 6 - Say also how I have noticed a roll of chicken wire behind the shed which would be wasted unless..................... 7 - We extend the run & get a few blue egg layers 8 - Say also how all my pals on the forum would LOVE to see our run extended & evolved.Hubby quite liked to positive comments last time 9 - Start thinking up chicken names on a floral theme Well,what do you think? Will it work ?

Cinnamon Posted March 25, 2006 Author Share Posted March 25, 2006 To be honest he is a bit of a pushover bless him, & he adores the hens we have I think my biggest problem is going to be thinking of 4 more suitable floral hen names Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted March 25, 2006 Author Share Posted March 25, 2006 Snowdrop I like for one of the Sapphires,which are white. Obviously Jasmin for one of the Jasmines ...maybe Buttercup or Primrose or are they too cow-ish? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
