Egg problems

There is a problem with the chickens and the quails.

The chickens are laying three eggs a day. There are four of them. I am not sure if one doesn’t lay or if they are on shift work. Maybe they eat full time but lay part-time. I am trying to discover the truth. I have stared at them a lot. They are not giving much away. My pointing finger isn’t working. They all look guilty. They may all be guilty. But then I am not sure. They all look innocent as well. I will keep watching who goes to the laying box and who doesn't.

There is the same problem with the quails. They are laying three eggs a day. There are four of them. Three girls and one boy. The boy is not laying eggs. I know that. I have watched him closely. He also bullies the girls. He is always jumping on their backs. It’s not fair. Three girls working and one boy messing around. I have marked his card. He’d better start laying soon or else.

Chickens nouveau

The chickens have arrived. I went to collect them with M. There are four of them. I think you buy one and get one and three.

They are not very old or very big. There is a brown one, two grey ones and a white one. They are not as pretty as the quails.

They will not lay eggs for four weeks. D says they have arrived four weeks early. They have time to settle in.

The chickens are living in the orchard. I hope they decide to stay. It was sad when the quails left. Biscuit was being good. She was keeping a close eye on them.

Chickens arriving

There are chickens coming next week. I don't know how many. I don't know what colour. I think they are just girls. Boys sing too much.

They are going to live in the orchard. Next to the quails house. The quails are still away. I don't think they are coming back.

More quails are arriving soon. They won't be here before the chickens. They must be catching a later train.
