Our Newest Recruits to the Funny Farm

 ~

While we were away on our break to Scotland our little Lavender Pekin family expanded all on their own.  Alice and Caldwell became the proud parents of three gorgeous little chicks.  Unfortunately, one died quite unexplicably yesterday but the other two are doing fine.

Mum had them out of the henhouse for the first time yesterday and at just 4 days old was teaching them to scratch in the soil and feed themselves.

They all joined in with the family group, but any Aunty that got too close was told off in no uncertain terms!

Gosh it's nice to be back, I don't know what has been going on with Blogger in my absence but it's taken me all this time to get back to normal on here.  If anyone else is still struggling, to be able to post I had to change to the new Editor.
