New Chickens and why we went for hybrids

This week we welcomed our new girls to the run.
Say hello to Honey & Soy - our new hybrid layer Lohmann Brown and Australorp.

After almost 18 months of owning heritage breed chickens, and out of that 18 months only getting eggs probably 4 months out of the 18 we decided we wanted to add some 'never let us down' layers. Especially with a baby who loves them and is already eating us out of house and home.
With the move to the new house, we no longer have landlord restrictions on our poultry. Yes we are still governed by our council regulations - which for our size block is 6 chickens (no ducks to the dismay of Nathan who has been dreaming of home grown pekin duck).
