We grow our own food in a suburban village in the North East of England. Follow us as we keep up the battle to be self-sufficient.

More hens
We have some more hens! Another 7. They are only a couple of months old and 5 of them were hatched by a friend from our eggs. The other 2 are gold tops (they are the 2 birds on the left above).
They were swapped for our 3 Welsh Harlequin drakes. I'm really pleased about this as we have been wanting a new home for these drakes but we wanted them kept together as they are a close knit group of 3 brothers. Now they are off to a good home.
The 7 hens have fitted in well. They needed no encouragement to roost in the hen houses overnight.
