They are ordered!

So again after much trawling of the web, we have decided to get our hens from Hen House Poultry in Teston near Maidstone. That means they will have a much shorter journey home... we have put in a order for 6-7 chooks so that we can decide on the day which ones will be best for us!!!!

But there will definately be a ranger an amber, a black, a blue, we are torn on the speckledy so will have to wait and see....

All very exciting........

It's Here! It's Here

Well it arrived!!! A whole 24hrs early......... I'd been glued to the forum as when I called to check the order they said it could be a day either side! Not good as I'd arranged it for when I was a day off...... Was feeling a bit gloomy about it as we've all had monsoon for the last few days..... So was on the phone to Donna who was explaining that her plants were drowning and she was going to put a brolley over them and a naffing great big lorry appeared outside!!!

Think I took the man by surprise as I was SOOOOOOOOO excited!!! We were both out there getting drenched! There were 5 huge boxes... and they had to come inside as getting up the side of the house in lashing rain is just toooo tricky.... poor coops was a bit put out I can tell you.....

When nick got it we took it all out of the wet boxes and it's now safely stacked in the living room until the big build on the weekend!!
