8th November 2010

Not a very nice morning for our girls to arrive. It was very windy and a little damp. We all waited anxiously for their arrival. At 10 o'clock  the man from Omlet came with our new chickens. He put together their new home and they prepared to settle in.
He explained to the school council how to care for the chickens and what needed to done each week. It all seems very straight forward.
 After clipping their wings(we do not want to lose them too quickly) they did not seem to be bothered by all the fuss, they were put into their new home - the eglu.

This breed

This breed is Miss Pepperpot

Our girls are very pretty indeed and await the naming ceremony on Friday. All the children in the school have thought of a name and two names will be picked from these. The announcement will be in assembly on Friday.

They are very calm but did not want to go into their little house at the end of the day. I hope they are not stubborn birds or we might have to have words.
