Well I am in love, a better picture of the chicks they are a bit unsure and unsettled after their first night in their new home. They have come out and explored a little but have gone back in house, so have left them with door open to come and go and keep an eye on them throughout the day. One had a Steve Mcqueen moment yesterday and managed to fly up a little further then I expected. So to be sure chairman of the allotment has clipped the wings. I held wings and he cut an nerve racking experience but reckon I could do it again now when they grow back or maybe ill show Mr and he can cut !
My Pumpkin plants are looking good have 4 in total and I am wanting May to end quick so there is no fear of Mr Frost and plant these out. Have prepared a bed for them at the bottom of the plot with manure and good compost so fingers crossed they will grow and my dream of a patch of pumpkins will be reality come Autumn.

Make sure you keep Mr Fox away from your chickens! It’s best to clip just one wing. Hope they settle in and start laying soon.
