Thank you Smam and here's to a good 2013 for you all as well.

So sorry to hear about your loss as well, as Perchy once said to me and it's a lovely saying "they really wrap their little feathers around your heart, don't they hey" {hug} {hug}

It's still quite light here today, so spent some time in the run armed with camera :-D

Betty, on my knee getting the mealworms

Betty still on my knee, Hilda and Nita craning their necks trying to reach!
Image

Nita goes for the jump!
Image

Nita and Betty on my knee, you can't see Hilda, but she's convinced my wellies are mealworms!
Image

Hilda thinks she can get into the mealworm tin.....
Image

Then Betty has a go....
Image
Image

Betty and Nita really seem to have grown

Love my little ladies {hug}

Betty seems a right character )t' Your run looks so comfortable with all the straw...isn't it difficult to poo pick or do you just do a full sweep out ?

Love your photos of your girls, they all look so sweet,I am hinking of laying down a nice deep bed of straw in my run when I clean it out, at the moment its got leaves in it for them to dig around in but they have broken down now and I think straw will be just as good and less messy :-D
