Well, that's me public enemy number one in the chicken world.
I've just evicted Fudge from the nest box in my house. She had decided that this was a good time of year to sit.

Aww bless! You meany! You know chickens just can't control their urges! I'm quite surprised I haven't had a Brahma in the broody breaker for a couple weeks, I think I'm overdue!

Don't forget the clocks go back tonight!

Thanks! I had forgotton.

Not that it matters much here. Up with the sun usually.....or the roosters.
I do have a meeting tomorrow though so it would be handy to know what the time is.

Perhaps you can collect as needed from the shore? I assume there oysters around Ipswich...?

I'd rather buy them, but thanks for the suggestion I don't drive and have to rely on buses, would take a lot of messing about, I'd have to get a bus into town to get a bus to Felixstowe which would take about two hours each way and the amount of bus fare wouldn't be much less than a 20kg bag.

Although that sounds like a fun activity for the family, after a few times it might get a bit dull. I get mine from Wynnstay, a farm-supply store chain specific to Wales/Midlands. I'm assuming there's bound to be something similar down where you are @Anna Ranieri. We baked Christmas cakes today so saved all the shells and baked them to crush up and feed back; I only bother when we use a large number (54!), but I'm sure you could collect them up to bake off at the end of the week.

Sorry about your weird neighbours @Chickencountryuk. Get that game-cam set up stat; hopefully they're not making unwelcome visits to your birds.

Thank you but I've found an outlet here in Ipswich which was suggested to me by @Yorkshire Coop - my daughter is picking up a 25kg bag tomorrow

I needed some pigeon grit and had to buy it online. My postman hates me!

Completely barking! You can’t be the full ticket if you wear a tie in a workshop!
I wouldn’t mind his workshop though...
