"You want MORE Chooks???!!" asks DH

Yes ... yes ... I do!!!!!!!!!
... and I've got them.
After standing about all day yesterday at the Lions Poultry Auction, I bought home 10 new girls. I wanted normal (read b-i-g) sized breeds to let out to free range in the horse paddocks, where they do a great job of being tractors and spreading the horse poo. I wanted them with big buxom breasts & big buxom feet!! 
I got some Old English Game, Red Ancona and Black Ancona; as well as one Buff Orpington ... and she is a BIG girl. I wanted to get some ex-battery hens, but the ones that were there were in a deplorable state and I knew they wouldn't last in the out-of-doors enclosures we have. They were featherless and many were bleeding. cry They were also de-beaked and I couldn't see them doing too well free ranging. I felt so bad watching the new girls enjoying the sun and having dust baths as I was building new perches and putting up new laying boxes this morning. cry
All I could think of was those poor girls I didn't buy yesterday.

Oh ... and Natalya & I are having a stocking at Woolly Butts Store on Wednesday night (September 9th) at 8.30pm. Please go take a look Smile 
There are lots of 8ply/DK yarns, as well as some hand kitted pieces.
