Home invasion

Egg update

We're up to 20 eggs.  Averaging 2 per day.  Cost per egg: £24.31

Exploring strange new worlds

I managed to get the girls out free ranging all day long over the weekend, so they had time to explore a little more.

All week I've had the kitchen door open while they've been out, but they've shown no interest in going inside.  Then this happened.  All four at once, having a good look around.  Piper and Taystee decided they liked it and settled down on the floor for a nap.

We've decided that they are allowed in the kitchen (although not on the worktops), as the floor there is washable.  They're not allowed in the rest of the house.

Now that it's clear that birds are allowed in the house, one of the collared doves from the tree in the garden decided to explore too.  Then she couldn't get out, so I had to catch her, which she wasn't very happy about.

Collared doves are very cute up close, but their eggs are tiny, so I decided not to keep her.
