THIS IS A DIARY ABOUT OUR PET CHICKENS, WHO LIVE FREE-RANGE IN OUR GARDEN.
HOPEFULLY I WILL BE ABLE TO DISPEL ANY MYTHS ABOUT NOISE AND SMELL AND INVITE MORE PEOPLE INTO THE BRILLIANT WORLD OF KEEPING CHICKENS.
THESE WONDERFUL BIRDS MAKE GREAT PETS FOR CHILDREN AND PROVIDE HOURS OF ENTERTAINMENT AND FANTASTIC TASTY EGGS FOR VERY LITTLE MAINTENANCE AND COST.
Well after reading another blog about Chickens (see my links) We decided that it was most certainly acceptable to keep chickens as a hobby. Despite one or two of our neighbours moaning behind our backs and behind closed doors we went ahead and welcomed into our garden four hens.. Harriet - Sapphire - Speckle - Amber Sometimes you just have to accept that you can please some of the people some of the time and for the rest of it ... well, get a life... GET A CHICKEN!!
Having now moved out into the countryside we have no neighbours so have 13 hens and 2 very nosey cockerals!!
HERE IS MY OWN DIARY OF A CHICKEN LOVER...
Firstly a huge " THANK YOU" to JUDE SCOTT at COTWOLD CHICKENS - This lady was really helpful and gave us loads of time, useful and advice and support. I would recommend going to visit JUDE AT COTSWOLD CHICKENS HAWTHORN STUD SOUTH NEWINGTON BANBURY If you too like us feel the need to expand your knowledge and desire for the good life!

Kittens, what kittens, obviously not keeping up with your news. Phone line will be hot hot hot tonight.
Great blog, enjoyed reading it.
Lovely pics! I'm very jealous of your Amber Star - I want a white chook! And also a Bluebelle. Alas, no more room, but maybe one day!
