They are very pretty when in flower. Do the hens eat the fruit or do you harvest & use it? I believe you can make fake port wine from the sloes ~ & gin! :lol: I can't tell from the photo, were the blackthorns planted as hedging? I imagine they'd be rather a good predator proof hidey hole for your birds.
Where you see the blackthorn bushes is extended ground. When the hole for the house was dug out, the soil was tipped down that bank. I don't recall any blackthorn on that bank before so I have no idea where they came from.
I haven't seen any of the chickens eat the berries. I don't think they are healthy to eat.
I'm going to have to take a couple of the small bushes out. I'll say this for blackthorn; once it gets established it spreads easily.
 
Thank you everybody for the kind comments about the lamps.:love
I'm going to try to post more pictures as I go.
Please Do. 😍 I know it's probably a pain & probably not very feasible but pictures of your techniques would fascinate some of us. I love seeing how an artist does their thing.

Yes please! I love seeing the transformation.

Are any of the chickens apprenticing with you Shad? Moon perhaps? 😇
