Which hen is the 'boss', I wonder? I still long for one of your lovely new laid eggs, Denise, we really enjoyed your gift, of the eggs, when we visited....<br />Of course, Mabel's egg was the most delicious. I see that leslie has adopted Ernest...so sweet.<br /> It was great to meet Leslie, at long last, and I very nearly didn't make it, due to my ongoing health issues...

How fun that they love your red bucket to lay their eggs and not the nests. <br />In a book I read "Still Life With Chickens" one winter it was so freezing cold, even with laying in more straw some of her chickens got frost bit. She kept fighting the idea of stringing an extension cord over to the hen house to hang a light but she finally did and the hen house did warm up and the chickens were so much warmer and happier, she could hear then softly cluckingat night. For her it was about her chickens being warm and not laying more eggs.<br />Love little Ernest, he is so cute and the ladies are lovely.<br /><br />cheers, parsnipangryparsniphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17236094827257446781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6923347451717626296.post-40740777681585837722012-10-02T18:45:40.826+01:002012-10-02T18:45:40.826+01:00Well I learned something new.
