Here is Samson, a (predominantly) buff orpington cockerel, just over a year old who we acquired yesterday. He was fighting with his father (inevitable, really) so we got him for free. He is in quarantine for a few days, while I am treating his scaly legs (caused by mites, so insecticide and vaseline will do the trick), and then we will let him out to join the girls. Hopefully we will get some nice crossbred chicks from him. Our grey hens go broody prettly regularly when it warms up.
For those whoM I havent told, I now have a garden blog, in which I am posting pictures as well as information for myself, about planting dates etc. The link is given in the header to this blog.
