Redwing Posted August 17, 2009 Author Share Posted August 17, 2009 Despite a headcold I managed to get the pics as promised (sheep don't care if you are ill they still need checking - like the chooks!) L-R Jessie, Penny and one with no name at present as the chosen name doesnt suit her The stables have had a facelift In my brain addled state I didnt realise that two of the chickens have vanished, they werent even out for long I have shut the others in and left a stable open in the hope that the two will come back Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
