Introducing…

Bill and Ben, the bantams. So called because they took so long to lay an egg for us I thought they were male. They are very shy, but slowly coming out of their shells (pun intended lol). When the other hens get out of flockdown, they are in a lovely enclosed coop and run within the chicken run, so they can’t be bullied or hen-pecked. Unless Bunty, Ginger and Fifi can pull faces through the wire at them…

They must be feeling that spring is coming because they have laid two eggs now. The picture above shows the difference in size between the bantams’ egg and one from the chickens.

As you can see from the pictures, they are camera shy. I might get better ones in a few months. I will sign off with a photo of our first daffodil, spring is coming, we hope. Laters.
