After 6 months of introductions I have finally done it- all of the hens now live together. When we move house the chickens are also getting new accommodation in the form of a large wooden coop and big run, probably with an outer area made from netting so that they can still sort of free range when we are outside, and so that Small Boy and Small Girl can still hold and play with the chickens without me worrying that they will never be seen again. It will also be good to be able to free range the ixworths with the ex batts in summer.
Because it is Friday I want to just mention Free Range Friday, raising funds for BHWT:

I am hoping to run a few events when we have moved into the new house to raise money for this brilliant cause.
Enjoy your hot cross buns!
