We've got 6
light sussex chickens - 1 cockerel and 5 hens. They've got used to where the hen house is , go in to roost at night and the hens lay their eggs in the correct place. We've also got George, the cockerel, who keeps them all in order. Called George after
another George , who made his entrance at about the same time as we acquired our George .
a very conscientious cockerel, who shepherds his harem around the fields , keeping an eye on them, making sure they all get a share of corn and other delicacies.
We've been told by visitors that he also crows at about 4 am, but as that doesn't wake us, he is allowed to do that.
Anyway its been a bit windy here for the last couple of days. Today its gusting to about 30-35 mph with short squally showers.
And we found that George has taken his girls to some undergrowth , where they all sheltered whilst the worst of the weather blew through.
