Day 2 - Friday 27th August 2010

This morning I woke up and I couldn't wait to see them.
I opened their door to let them into the run.  They came straight out. 

The pellet feeder had got damp in the night so Mum had to take that out and clean it.  I put some pellets in a dish and tucked into their breakfast.  They must have been really hungry.

Day 1 - 26th August 2010

Today we went to collect the chickens.  The lady took me into the field and I could choose which ones to get.  Unfortunately Mum let the first chicken go again as she was scared of it!!! ha ha

I chose 2 Light Sussex Hens and I called these Fluffy and Snowball.  I also chose 2 Speckled Hens and I called these Ruby and Scarlett.  They were quite hard to catch but Grandad caught both the Speckled Hens and helped catch the 2 Light Sussex Hens. 

We put them in boxes and the lady put tape over the top to make sure they didn't get out on the way home.

On the way to the car they kept talking to us.

When we got home we put them in the chicken run and took lots of pictures of them.  They went straight into their nice warm house.  They all huddled up in the corner together and looked really sweet.

We left them alone for a while to settle in.
