There is nothing so lovely as a happily sauntering hen, pecking some grass here, fluffing around in some dust there. 

To a chicken fancier such as me, I'm not ashamed to say it, and one living in serious fox territory, free range chooks on pasture protected by Adam's fancy new poultry fence look mighty fine. 

I think he got the fence through Allsun, after seeing it demonstrated at a Joel Salatin workshop in Jamberoo last year. 

We're thinking of ordering another one for the broilers. 

Once upon a time I would spend hours on food blogs, or breathtaking photography sites.

Now I'm searching out pages about raising ducks. 

I love how things change. 

How do you like your eggs?
