Hello and welcome to The Compost Bin. I'm Compostwoman and I live with my family in rural Herefordshire. We have nearly four acres of garden and woodland, all managed organically and to Permaculture principles, which we share with Chickens, Cats and assorted wildlife. We also grow a lot of our own food, run courses in all sorts of things and make a lot of compost!
I am a Master Composter and have spent more than a decade as a volunteer Community Compost adviser with Garden Organic and my local Council.
I'm a self employed Environmental Educator so I run workshops and events where I talk about compost, veg growing, chicken keeping, cooking, preserving and sustainable living. I also run crafts workshops and Forest School/outdoor play sessions in our wood.
We try to live a more self sufficient lifestyle here, as best we can, while still having a comfortable life and lots of fun.

Chick update - 4 weeks old today
Nutmeg and her two chicks. They are four weeks old today :)
See how big they are!
I think the black one ( a Copper Black Marans) may be a cockerel
I'm not yet sure about the blond one (Wheaten Marans x Cream Legbar)
Whatever, they are very entertaining and Nutmeg continues to be a superb mum to them :)
how sweet x
ReplyDeleteGrowing very well. I think you're right about the black one.
