Is that the double puncture mark that’s visible but fuzzy in the last picture? Even out of focus that looks sore ☹️

:lau Bella knows where her dinner comes from!

Guess we’ll just have to wait for flowers to find out what it is. Flower colour can vary but their shape & what 5he flower spike looks like are pretty consistent. Wouldn’t rule it out yet…

Are the flowering stems square? If not then it’s not motherwort as that’s in the mint family & they all have square stems & tend to be aromatic

I’ve probably mentioned this before - Bub-bub has given me some really painful ‘bites’ (grab & twist). I take the view that I’ve done something stupid & try not to repeat the mistake. Every morning he comes out of their house, gallops over, fluffed up & pecks my foot, occasionally giving it a...

I am currently offering mine kale leaves hung up so they can rip bite sized chunks off. Gives them green poop 🤣. Today’s treat as they won’t be able to get out (I’m taking mum to her Easter retreat at Douai Abbey nr Reading) is a fresh half sweetcorn on a stick - stops it getting grubby. Very...

Indeed it does

Hi Have you come across this organisation? https://www.nycgovparks.org/greenthumb/45-years Seems they have chickens in community gardens in the Bronx, Brooklyn & Manhatten. The maps are handily coded. Might not be your kind of thing &, if not, please forgive my presumption in suggesting it

:hugs

Yup, it was an absolute lifesaver during the Covid lockdowns. Before spending much of my time looking after mum I was living in my rented first floor studio flat. I spent most of the daylight hours either working in people’s gardens or on the allotment. Being able to go to the allotment during...

Wet all day today, nice day yesterday so took my 4 chooks on a “field trip” to the allotment. They had a whale of a time & I got a decent amount done but forgot to take pics :(:( Will have to remember next time

Cloudy here but did get an alert from Aurora Watch when it was still light! Continued with red alert (possibly visible from anywhere in the UK) until after dark. One day I may be somewhere without all the light pollution & cloud cover :fl:fl

https://www.pbs.org/wgbh/masterpiece/shows/mr-bates-vs-the-post-office/episodes/ Scandalous that it’s taken 20 years of people’s lives, sometimes literally taken their lives & is still causing misery. Worse that it took a tv drama to really put a rocket up the politicians to get it sorted...

We had some rather enthusiastic hail yesterday & although it tried today it was so fine it was almost nonexistent. Blinking cold though in the wind 🥶

A shame when the good guys go too early https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/entertainment-arts-68433675

Ok, lets see how I go with this :p Don’t do what’s crap, fatbook or twitface so the v short video is in the gallery: https://www.backyardchickens.com/gallery/img_3713-mov.7962402 I’ve noticed that the chickens have different tastes at different times of year. Currently jerusalem artichoke...

:barnieWell I would post some tax but I don’t seem able to insert any pictures at the moment, all I get is the two chain links symbol and a box with https in. Will try later when maybe my untechie brain can work it out. Sorry Mr taxman :oops:

2 lesser known places: https://foundlingmuseum.org.uk/visit-us/ good links on their website to other nearby attractions, places to eat etc. https://www.chelseaphysicgarden.co.uk/ 350 yr old botanical garden originally set up by the Worshipful Society of Apothecaries as a “show & tell” for...

Interestingly the crow appears to be wearing a natty feather hat which the rooster is tearing into, the duck appears to be egging him on and the pheasant appears to be smoking a small cigar:lau Weird but fun
