Our 2 hens have finished sitting on the Guinea fowl eggs - out of 10, we managed to hatch 5 of them.

The chicken eggs we have in the incubator won't be ready for another week or so. Excited to see how many of them we get.

You know what isn't fun? Living in a 200 year old stone house, with no insulation, during a heatwave.

The fox continues to prowl around our chickens. This morning we caught it in the GARDEN a few feet from our favourite chicken. Luckily the magpies warned us and we were able to scare it away.

It's not nice keeping the little cluckers cooped up in this heat, but needs must unfortunately.

She just sent me this...
