    Cheery Pics

    Expensive, but then I suppose they are a lot bigger then the feathered variety. £1 a brace, in the feather here in season. I don't bother plucking etc, just remove the breast fillets and the legs. Pity none of the cats seem to like pheasant, at the moment the kittens still just want mum...

    Sorry they're out of focus but I had to be quick and I'm not very good. My little adopted stray cat's kittens at 12 hours old. Two ginger and three assorted black.

    Coop for 10 hens - recommendations

    To be fair to the Solway house Chris bought from me, I bought it secondhand on eBay when it was 3 or 4 years old and Chris bought it from me probably in 2014. I had it as a "starter" house and raised it of the ground. It was in fact strapped on to a substantial wooden frame which happened to...

    Sensible Justice

    At last a magistrate with a sense of what justice should be! https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-lancashire-56209115 These are my favourite quotes from the article "They were ordered to carry out 150 hours of "pretty hard graft" repair works, Lancashire Police said." and "Reparation work...

    Surprise Hens

    This might give a better indication of size - with the two CLBs and the Welsummer cockerel. They are certainly on my list if I decide to keep hens again.

    Surprise Hens

    I had a couple but only for a few months when circumstances forced me to give up poultry keeping. They were good layers and like yours Hen-Gen, not particularly flighty. One of them however had a habit of going broody and she needed at least three days n the isolation coop to cure her. I had...
