Ooo. I bet you never had a peep out of them all afternoon.

Did you get a bulk delivery or loads of 125 litre bags ?

How long did it take the boys to lay it for you?

Its nice out there isn't it, quite mild, getting a bit windier though.
The girls all look great.

That looks wonderful Babe

That's half the fun of it !

I'm making semi-plans to extend our run further into the garden. Would be nice to retain some grass for a while though rather than have to resort to the woodchip look.
It does look nice for them though. Well done to you and the invisible bark fairies.

Wow - they have lots of space and look like they are having lots of fun - hopefully they'll repay you with lots of eggs!

Love the little t_shirt thingy Evie is wearing - do you have the kintting pattern for the ex-batt jumpers you mentioned on an earlier post?

Hi Babe that looks great! We have a similar run with bark but I got my oh to plant a few shrubs in there thinking they would like to have things to jump on or hide under. As I've not let them out there yet becuase of the weather would it have been better to leave it bare for more space? :roll:
