So, introducing The Girls....

So, I've finally decided on names for the chickens....

Introducing *drum roll please*  Big Blue (white one), Henny Penny (black & white), Soup (all black), Luke & Leia (speckled brown ones - they are slightly different, but I can't always tell unless I look closely, so they are twins!)

They are good layers too. We have a steady supply of 2-3 eggs a day. Apparently they only lay  1 egg every 25 hours, we had 2 eggs yesterday afternoon so I was expecting any today. We had 3! Yay!! When we got The Girls the previous owner didn't think Soup was a layer, but that math suggests she may well be....

So they are settled, we are loving the fresh eggs, now to build they extra run bit and we'll be proper sorted *nod*
