On arriving at my desk this morning, I had a larger than usual visitor at my window - the peahen had come to pay a visit! The peacocks and pheasants are regular visitors to our garden, even more so now that we have the hens. They are always pecking alongside the run - I think they know that the hens are being fed porridge and lots of tasty morsels inside and want some too!
The hens are doing really well - we have had 8 eggs so far (although I think only three hens are laying...its funny that you can tell just by the shape of the egg which hen has laid it!) Still waiting for my first elusive blue egg but I am sure it won't be long now!

Lovely Hannah. Great that it stood long enough for you to take the photo! Will the blue egg be the same size as a regular egg. Not very familiar with blue eggs.
Lovely! We had peahens on the roof up at the kitchen at the big house one day last summer. I am not sure where they came from. They just arrived and then just as mysteriously dissappeared. They do make a lot of moise though. I hope you take a picture when you get your blue egg!
