Happy Easter!

Yesterday I spent the afternoon reinforcing the chicken coop after I caught the chickens enjoying a dust bath in the middle of the veg patch. They've been escaping a lot recently, a neighbour found one of the girls in her front garden and another said he had seen one of them standing in the road! I don't want to come home some day to find them gone, chicken wire, staples and a few extra nails here and there and I don't think they'll get out again. I cobbled together a veg patch cover out of some old floorboards and left over chicken wire too just in case.



The girls have nearly been with us for two years now!
Hope you're having a lovely Easter break xxx
