I've been lurking on this forum for years and have now decided to join!

I live in Gloucestershire, England in a rented cottage on a beef farm. My lovely landlord lets me keep my girls in the unused kennels, lol!

I have a RIR, aged 18 months and the boss lady - Beth, a Cream Legbar, aged 10 months - Amy and a White Star - Polly, also 10 months. They're all good layers, bless 'em!

I hope to think of some questions for you but I tend to search and find answers that way! Will try to ask you lovely people instead now tho'.

Am really impressed with the knowledge and friendliness of this forum and am proud to be a part.

"Have faith in God," Jesus answered. "I tell you the truth, if anyone says to this mountain, 'Go, throw yourself into the sea,' and does not doubt in his heart but believes that what he says will happen, it will be done for him.

Helen: Daria, do you have to look at everything in such a negative light?

Daria: Could you possibly be referring to the harsh light of reality?
