Looking good mate, I cut all my trees back last autumn ready for this year noticed a couple long ones still to come off but will wait a while, as you say some trees starting to bud daffs and most other bulbs going well and open or opening, my hydrangea got new leaves and shoots for about month or so now grass needs cutting but to wet as our garden lowest and all surrounding ones run into mine keeping it wet, on another not cocks are in full swing must have about 20 running the hens but will throw away any eggs over next couple weeks then let some start sitting from next round

Most of my pairs are now down on eggs, its earlier than planned but I will let some of these hatch. I did wean my first 3 babies this weekend which were out of the stock birds I obtained from our friend the late Des Coulter, I have two more that I'll wean during the week and 3 out of the 4 of these pairs are back down on their second round.
That is good mate
