I hope I am not being to nosey, but just noticed Redwings chicken count has gone down to a managable 70

Have I missed something terrible..

Love to know What, How and Why.

Am being nosey, hope I havent offended anybody by asking.

I presume a lot of her stock have now gone to pastures new. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Some of us keep adding to her chicken count

I think like many other people the constant rain has taken its toll here and the sheer number of birds was becoming a chore and not a pleasure, the feeding and watering routine along with basic checks was taking 3 hours a day and I wanted to get a better balance between the time spent with the other animals

 

I have given up a few breeds and passed my breeding birds to others to continue the good work

 

A few birds have gone to Ireland to be part of a breed improvement programme

 

Its also the time of year when my hatching is virtually non existant and I start to look at the youngsters I have with the show season in mind

 

So nothing too dramatic or worrying

Oh thanks for that Redwing,

I always smile when I see your huge list of animals It always makes me laugh, especially when you popped along to Wernlas (think that how you spell it) to have a look and came back with most of the stock

Didnt want to look nosy but I think because we all chat on here it feels like we are all friends after all these years.
