An update: Maggot cocoons.

The chickens are doing well. 6 are laying every day and, our broody, caroline is up to no good again! It is getting tempting to get her some fertilised eggs, but this summer isn't the right time. We already have 7 chickens! Maybe when we have to increase stock again we will try letting her have some chicks since she is so keen!

The local fishing shop was closing down yesterday and gave us a bag of maggot cocoons free. They are a bit smelly, but the chickens think they are lovely!
