I miss Perris’s contributions.

I do as well. They're welcome to post here.

Ohhh, look, it's almost spring like. Two and a half hours. Everyone came out but Mow headed back to the run (there were other people in the field this afternoon and that may be a factor) but when I went to get her she went on to the field without complaint and once she'd located Glais and Sylph, went over to join them.
One of the other people had dug over a section of their plot which they made a B line for. All very chilled. Great to see them out in the sunshine roaming around.
One can definitely tell Sylph is Fret's daughter, she flat out drama about every little displeasure and as equally determined to get her way. You may remember early in the thread Fret's determination to roost next to Henry when they roosted on the nest bar in the coop run. It used to look something like this with the Ex Battery hens roosting in the coop.

Sylph is much the same at roosting time, such a vocal fuss.
This is Mow's leg I cut most of the crap away from. Not a great picture.

I sat with a friend at the top of the field and chatted enjoying the sunshine and watching the chickens for a while, got some more iodine and Vaseline in between the toes on Mow's feet once my friend had left, did the chores, offered a second feeding opportunity close to dusk which Mow and Glais had a nibble at on principle, closed up and headed back to the city.
I didn't take any roosting pictures because Sylph had only just finished complaining and I didn't want to set her off again; she's loud!

@BDutch I must have missed this info - where did Perris go?

She is still around. But not on this thread since she was insulted by a very moody Shad who was coping with a lot of disasters back then. Hope his family is okay now. He didn’t talk much about his private life since.

You can search for a persons history if you want to know where someone posted. Fill in the name in search, nothing else: bingo.
