The Chickens are getting closer .....

We (PJ)  waited for the better weather and better health to start off again with preparing the Chicken Ranch.
PJ has sunk some of the sleepers into place now, taking his time and only working when he has the next day to rest and recover. 


The lawn looks a tadge sad but we know that the grass will grow again and Mother Nature rarely gives up on the garden.


The soil is well trodden down although it was rotovated after it was all cleared of plants.  

More sleeper 'pieces' were cut and brought home yesterday so the shorter piece is now a 'sort of' step!



One more side to do .... the apple trees side.  This has been left until last, trying to let the trees start into growth so that they will survive the digging round their roots.



The bushes at the top of the garden look neat behind their sleeper but for how long I wouldn't like to guess.  I would imagine that by the end of the summer we will be trimming them back out of the way of the chickens!!!

At least we have an almost clear patio, just the one piece of sleeper brought over yesterday.
