Day 279.

Bush eggs: none. Nest box eggs: three – gifts from Steve, Brian and me for the Boys’ safe passage. Feed hopper: just enough for a mouse’s tea party – for one.

Oh happy, HAPPY days! Ella was talking more last night about their old home and it seems that before the hens were taken away OUR Female Person arrived with “four very handsome matching white roosters”. Our BOYS! They will now live a charmed life of long days and lots of hens and will stay together for life, unless called upon to do stud duties at another place apparently.

Brian was so happy she couldn’t sit still. So it seems that The Female Person swapped our Boys for the new hens – we should be offended but it sounds like the Boys have truly landed in luck’s nest.
