Meet the other chickens!
These are some of our other chickens. They are a combination of ones we've bought, ones we've adopted and ones we've hatched. Along with Light Sussex, Pekin Bantam, Silver Laced Wyandotte, Rhode Island Red, Araucana, we have a colourful bunch of mixed breeds. All of our chickens are allowed to roam round our gardens, woodland and paddock (and have been known to venture down the lane, into an adjoining field of cows or the nearby church yard!) They really are free range! They love sunbathing, scratching around and having dust baths in the flower beds. The youngest hens have just stated laying, so hopefully we shall look forward to an abundance of eggs over the coming weeks!
