Chickens.
Last weekend we rehomed Red - she had developed a problem with making shells and we couldn’t fix it, no matter what we tried, and we’d tried everything for a couple of months. Now, this can be an issue for rescued battery hens - so we contacted the rehomers and our local contact took her for us. So Red was delivered last Sat.
While I was out delivering Red, Groovy got out of the run and died before we could find her and get her back. So we were down to one chicken, Rainbow, our regular layer and scruffiest looking of the lot - happy and healthy in every other way, but now stressed and lonely.
We’ve just been to get her a friend. There will be pictures in the next few days as we let them meet each other and the new one gets a name. She’s a 16 week old Copper Maran - not quite at point of lay, probably a couple of months befroe we see eggs from her.
