Chickens are still coming.....

Seems such a long time since I last spoke of the chickens .........
Work has progressed so much, the land was cleared, bushes were chopped back.

The blackcurrant bushes alongside the compost bin were moved nearer towards the house. 


Poor old Olive was moved nearer the fence so she could have more space  - to grow olives hopefully.
Julia, Augusta and Septa have all been moved so that they can now form a blueberry lineup!


I don't think you can see very well from these photos but the apple trees - three on one stem (Cox Orange, Golden Delicious and Blenheim Orange) - was severely pruned, especially on the chicken ranch side!!

The sleepers also arrived, thanks to Tyseley Loco Works.  
We now have a pile of well oiled sleepers waiting to be sunk into the ground, hopefully this will deter Mr Fox.


 Roll on Summer!!!!
