One of our twenty new hens (230/365), originally uploaded by :Duncan.

I’m so happy to have chickens back in the garden. I love to watch them scratch about for food and the delightful purring they make. There are many different colours: Black, grey, white, brown and red. They arrived yesterday, so in a day or two we can expect our first eggs. Fed on fresh kitchen waste and roaming free in the orchard, the eggs should taste just great!
