Hello from Berkshire

Post: # 87478Post chookwoman »

This site was flagged up on a food board I frequent, and loads of it looks interesting, and you all come across as a friendly bunch. So hi from me (Chrissy). I currently have four hens and am very ish in the self sufficiency stakes. Hoping to do more as I learn more. :)

Aha! . another cackleberry fan! :lol: I'm up to five hens now! (Only recently came accross the word and I love it! - Cackleberry is 1950's colloquialism for hens' eggs)
