Though more usually it consists of me going into the hen house, checking they are all present and correct on their perches, and putting some food out for them for the morning. In poor weather I'll shut their hatch so they can't go out till I let them. But in good weather and longer days I leave their hatch open so they get up when they please (about 6am at the moment) and go to bed when they please (around 7pm).Sianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15086990153239265950noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-496522256748038434.post-38323380087285846512017-03-13T00:06:58.329+00:002017-03-13T00:06:58.329+00:00Dear Sian!

But we have croci coming up and the dafodils are getting on greatly!! Ms Button is a lovely cat, all I can say is that the rabbit in our garage has begun to point at the windows where he can see the sun and crave his outdoorcage. I'm glad recycling is at hand in your parts, here where everything is easy, people complain about how messy it is. But you hold your standards high on those small islands, good work!!Fairtraderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02517527131786415943noreply@blogger.com
