Hello, sorry i havent been blogging for a while, i misplaced my password book and have just recently found it!

I hope everyone had a super christmas (and you all got what you asked for!) And i wish you the best for the year ahead!

After 3 years of my old ”bog standard” incubator i decided to go up market and i decided to get a R COM Suro King incubator, with automatic truning and also automatic humidity. So as a test to see if it is working ok (and also a treat for me!) i have ordered some stunning Quail Barbu D’avers, to go along with my lovely Black Barbu D’anvers! I shall keep you all updated with how the incuabator (and most of importantly) the eggs are coming on, and i shall be uploading photos as i  go along!

Since i uploaded my blog we have also had 2 of the biggest shows in the UK, which is of course the Poultry Club of Great Britains National show, where there was a superb entry, and we saw a silver sebright owned by Mr Robin Creighton. And my favourite show of the year, which is of course the National Federation of Poultry Clubs Championship Show, which is held at the Staffordshire Agricultural center. The supreme champion of the show was a lovely Buff Rock, and was owned by Mr. Robin Ramus.

I have a friend who is opening a ex battery hen re-homeing programme, if you are just starting with hens or have an established flock these are brilliant! They are super laying eggs (usually an egg per day) and are super as pets! They are super with young children and i am sure that you will get attached! For more infomation please contact Moll Brassington on either facebook: Moll Brassington Twitter: @mollbrassington and email: M.brassington@live.co.uk  . They are asking for a minimum donation of £3.00 per bird, and they are based in the Derby area, if you can take some in, please do!
