Dear Donedigging, you do make a good trainer of head poultry keepers.
I now have charmed the hens, and you were also right with the egg number, indeed it was 18 eggs, although one was broken again.

Hi OH

Well done OH, I knew you could talk the girls round. :wink:

Old Codger, won't worry about asking you to be Head Poultry Keeper in the future when he's off on his next adventure.

P.S I have no experience with chickens at all, only buying them at the supermarket for Sunday roast.

Dear Donedigging, your praise brings me great happiness.

17 today.

I wouldn't worry about not knowing anything about hens Donedigging, you can't be good at everything. :wink:

Dear OH,

You won't tell Old Codger will you? :wink:

Your Secrets are safe with me Donedigging.

Suppose you're just off to bed.

Thank you OH. ( for keeping quiet) :wink:

Any updates on Old Codgers chickens? I expect you have them all well trained by now and have a few pet names for them

I bet you'll be glad that OC will be home soon and your peace and quiet will be broken, with all his adventures of the high seas. :wink:

Morning Donediggig, i'm a little concerned over one of the hens, she just doesn't look to well.

O.C is still away for another 10 days yet, how the wealthy live.

Good evening OH,

You have me worried now, how is she tonight?

Posted: **Mon Apr 27, 2009 8:45 pm**

Dear Doneigging, i think she looks a little perkier tonight.
I did pick her up earlier and give her a bit of a cuddle, she just looked into my eyes and gave me a look that would melt the hardest of poultry keepers hearts.

Dear OH,

Thank goodness for that,

girls do the same.

Dear OH,

How's the poorly one?

Did your magical looks work? :wink:

Good morning Donedigging, and what a glorious morning it is as well.

I think the poorly one might be trying it on a little, she seems to pick up after some affection, but looks a little rough later on again.

The Old Codger should be back latter next week. I got a post card from the old fellow yesterday, saying they have got sunburnt, i hasten to add, there will be no offers from me to apply sunburn cream, he can do his own. :twisted:
