Well, we are now the proud carers of THREE hens. I collected Delilah from Sharon Gould at Pinvin (highly recommend her if you are looking for chooks) this morning, and arrived home mid afternoon.
When we opened the coop to let Delilah out she came running down the steps, and was confronted by Scarlett and Lydia at the bottom. They let her get off the ladder and into the Run, and then there was a nasty bit of hen pecking.
It's mainly settled down (for now?), but we'll need to keep an eye on them.
The cats have been going bananas trying to get to the hens!
