mlb1871 Posted August 29, 2006 Share Posted August 29, 2006 Hi, well today everything arrived on time and better than expected. I have been reading the forum for a couple of weeks and today our delivery of 3 hens and eglu arrived. What can I say, the hens are great and very tame and live in a small free range area built last week. My wife, Donna, is still a bit unsure, she was the one I had to convice to get them, but Cameron (who is only 14 months but very good taste) loves them. But as I say this is only the first day, I am sure they will become part of the family very soon. Anyway - I look forward to the forum and many thanks for the help and tips posted so far. Martin, Donna & Cameron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mlb1871 Posted August 30, 2006 Author Share Posted August 30, 2006 Yes Willow is an Old English. She has been a bit curious about the chickens but so far hasn't taken too much notice. Things may change once I let them out into the run tho'. I have to get busy and build the gate before the weekend first....... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
