The Mammy looks rather inscrutable. Is she pleased with her Chick?

Poultritudinous in the extreme
Contrary to original assumptions, thattiz not a chicken.
'Tis a mudlark. A very charming one at that
We call it “sowing”
They call it “treasure hunt”
Snork!

Nighty-night, Lovely Chooks.

That’s lovely, Joe

This, incidentally, is what the “mudlark” (perfect description!) above is supposed to look like. Butter(cups) wouldn’t melt…
We’ll be visiting Peebles Agricultural Show on 11th August - primarily to see the poultry (believe it, or not). Mr Soo would be happy to post pics of any variety you’d like to see, joe. Last time we visited, we spent an absolute age in the poultry tent, as we are both a bit bonkers about our fevvered friends.

If you want real craziness, look out for Polish chickens:
Brexit is required.
Careful now
It’s been a while, so I think it’s time for an update on the small ball of fluff - aka Sammy - mentioned above. Not quite so small and fluffy now:
Millie still inordinately proud of her achievement - and rightly so:
Still fluffy enough. Awww
My, they grow fast! Sammy is very fine - do you know if he’s a Samuel or she’s a Samantha, Joe? Though I understand from your previous experiences that it’s not easy to tell unless he starts to crow.
