Thanks for the update! Glad things are going well! Hope to see you around more!Hi there,
Going fairly well I suppose. Rescued two chickens who turned out to be terrible bullies to my hand raised chickens but I persevered as best I could. I called them Bossy and Boots lol. Boots ended up having a strange disease and we looked after her needs and gave her a good life until eventually she had to be put down. After maybe three years ish, Bossy started crowing at 5am constantly and throughout the day this year so went down to join a larger flock south of here where she now has a boyfriend and is apparently very happy.
My two originals ladies are well. One is moulting atm and looks like someone should call the RSPCA on me hahaha but that's normal. I have also started a veggie patch in the last year so they are enjoying the excess and greens.
I moved the girls into a much bigger house that has a raised coop with a slide-out tin floor last year, meaning I could get rid of the council-mandated concrete slabs on the ground. This has now completely eliminated rats from my backyard, as the slabs merely provide somewhere they can hide. So that's been really wonderful.
Otherwise, we just tonk along here doing our thing.
I hope everyone else is doing well!
