New birds on the block

New birds
New birds

Maybe we wouldn’t have got any new birds after the fox attack for a bit, but Percy the remaining bird seemed a bit lost without company. So yesterday we went to a different supplier and got two more Speckledys although the laying one is a bit dodgy, as in not quite pukka (main pic), but she’s already laid an egg. Tonight had to get all three in as Percy having been fine with the modified fox porch to the hen house and normally the first to bed in the hen house was found falling asleep under a wheelbarrow (she’s mid pecking order so that doesn’t seem to have been the issue).

We’ve had fox cam out for the last few nights and nothing has been picked up so far focussed on the run it was taking on the attack day. Obviously still full of Black Rock and Speckledys.

Otherwise a frosty day and calm before more wind and rain.
