RedReader Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 They're here!! The girls have been in their eglu for just over an hour & loving it They are just SO addictive, I've taken loads of pics to bore everyone with. Ive spent the last hour sitting on a chair in the garden watching them & giggling away at how well they're settling in. Im beginning to regret only taking 1/2 day off as Im now convinced Im going to miss something while Im at work this afternoon........

RedReader Posted April 28, 2008 Author Share Posted April 28, 2008 Thank you. Its tempting not to go in this afternoon but I can look forward to seeing them this evening & its only a few days till they can free range so I can enjoy a long weekend of chook watching. Im sure Barbara is about to venture into the eglu soon tho.... RR x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mutrix Farmers Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 Welcome RedReader. Our girls have certainly added something very positive to life in our house (and we haven't even had an egg yet!!) I don't get into work until much later than I used to because I have a little chat with them before I come out. In fact I'm in danger of not doing my allotted 37 hours unless I stay late - nah, shorter lunch hours should do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abbey Road Girl Posted April 28, 2008 Share Posted April 28, 2008 If I have not been posting all hat much in the past 11 days, dunno why 'cept perhaps cos I've been watching hens. Addiction is a myth. It's a wise life-style choice to be besotted by chickens. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
