Its All Change Now

So life has definitely changed!

On 21st December our daughter made her way into the world - on her due date! Emma was in hospital for 2 days, from waters breaking to baby being born and discharged. That gave me two days to get the house ready!

Once baby was home we tried (still trying) to get into a routine, especially where the animals are concerned. Not long after Doris stopped laying. We also noticed lots of white feathers so wondered if she was moulting as this can obviously interfere with egg laying. Most days we are able to get the chickens cleaned and let them out for a run and have also got back into the routine of giving them their afternoon treats! Result being after 2 weeks of no eggs - Doris has laid this morning!

Will be interesting to see how the routine changes over the coming months!
