on what I now call the 'Funny Farm' Chickens are all doing well and Bea has settled down now after losing her best buddy Georgie a few weeks back. The three Buffs are great and they have all grown accustomed to the new girls (my black girls!!) Phoebe and Morgana. Mainly known as Pheebs and Morgs!! They have for the past week or so all slept together in their new home with no fights, blood or problems (thank heavens). I didn't rush things though. This shows that they all get on together: All pecking for sunflower hearts: Morgana: Pheobe: If Phoebe was a budgie I think she would be a Spangle!! The chook home:

Very pretty hens. Phoebe looks like my French Marrens only with looser feathering.

I had been wondering how the chookies had been getting on, Shirls. Thanks for the update. And the chook house has a visitor ...... could almost be SQ's Cookie.

Aww thanks everyone for your comments. Must admit it has been a bit of a trying time lately, but all is now settled on the funny farm. Yes Hezz that's one of the woodpigeons that visits, I do have collared doves come down too, but they won't eat together on the same table. I often get birds in the hen house too, sometimes they don't remember the way they went in, so I have to go in there, to the far corner which makes them navigate towards the open door! The robin is the worst one for remembering how it got in!

Our sunbirds sometimes do that in our downstairs room. I feel so mean trying to 'help' them find the doorway.
