THE MARSHALL'S CHICKENS...


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!

PICTURES OF OUR GIRLS...











"Harriet" is a Bovan Goldline - A Rhode Island Red cross Light Sussex.


Harriet is one of the 1st chickens we got - she is definitely the head of the pack! She is laying daily and loves a treat of grapes, spaghetti , pasta and rice.. she always has the 1st pick! She tends to lay between 8 - 9 am and lets you know as soon as she has! (Mind you if I had to lay an egg the size she does I'd make a noise too!)
