I wasn't suggesting you shouldn't feed them. I still feed the chickens here three times a day with an 18% protein, 1% calcium all flock type feed. Even in winter here, okay, we don't get the big snow and big freeze like you do, but the chickens still forage for about 40% of their shit weight to...

Good evening Cafe. I've made tea. Help yourselves. The rockery in front of the main house is falling down. Water has got behind the stones and washed out stones that I can't even lift! Another lovely day here. Lots of stuff thinks it's spring. Notch with Donk and Knock.

I thought your chickens free ranged Meg? All the talk about feed and balanced diets isn't really applicable when it comes to free range chickens. Don't any of your hens go broody?

SHRA. Neurological damage due to bad hatching I would guess.

Looks like it from the picture. Did it get damaged in the incubator?

Tribe 2.

Moon again but this time she's with Cillin rather than Treacle and she laid an egg.

He wood!:D Doing a post on my lamps thread.

"Are you going to bed tonight or what?"

Good evening Cafe. There's a pot of tea on the stove for those who care for a cup. @DobieLover :hugs Such a shame. Congratulations on the new arrivals @Meg-in-MT

Hello Mr sourland.:) I did have a good day thank you. Lovely and sunny here and quite warn at mid day.

Two week old eggs should be fine as long as they haven't been heated up. I often collect week or more old eggs and haven't had a bad one yet.

I don't. I'll try to remember to ask her next email.

Did you find stuff grew better with the sunny Spanish newspaper?:lol:

You would probably enjoy it in reality. I don't talk much. I make good strong coffee and Cillin would sit on your lap.

I like pepper. :love
