Day 202.

Bush eggs: none. Nest box eggs: none. Feed hopper: half full.

We went for a really long walk to the next farm today and met our neighbours! Sally and Doris are two extremely common and unkempt-looking hybrid layers that moved in only about three weeks ago. They had heard Jack (and the Boys) crowing and were rather hoping we would come for a visit, as they themselves are a bit too timid for the journey. We talked for a while and they showed us their house (NOT very salubrious) and feed hopper (No Frills brand of pellets). We then promised to come again some other day and walked home. It’s nice to know we have neighbours we can call on in a bind but I don’t think we’ll go back – they’re not really our type.
