Life.

Well the two youngest chicks both died the other day. I'm not totally sure what did it as they both died within a 20 minute period but from what I've read it looks like gape worm.

I'm sad about their deaths. They were lovely little guys. I'm doing my best to focus on the other chickens though. The biggest babies, are now almost 7 and a half weeks old and are outside now and living with yellow, one of our big chickens. The other two chickens attacked them but yellow is quite good with them. We'll start to integrate the other chickens gradually.

I bought an apple tree yesterday to plant in the garden. Its a cox's orange pipping (I think) and was a bargain at £7. Today I bought four strawberry plants as well. If only it would stop raining, I'd be able to go outside and plant them.
