I'm sorry about Bramble's chicks. That is one of the hardest things about raising chicks. Even with the best of mothering you never know. I'm glad one survived at least!
I'm incredibly lucky because my family and I live in town but also work in an orchard growing apples, pears and plums. We're only a few miles from the sea so we get the very best of British Town, Country & Coastal Living.
We have dogs and cats, horses, ferrets, chickens and quail, a tortoise, a parrot and a jackdaw called Sparrow who was rescued from the orchard with a broken wing.
We have a lot of fun.
We're passionate about the British countryside, wildlife, gardening, antiques, animals, books, art, design,vintage, home, food, living (and trading) in an ethical and environmentally sustainable way.

How exciting! They are so cute! How are Bramble's chicks doing, by the way? They must be growing up. =)
Cute! What are the black ones?
Kateri, sadly only one of Brambles' chicks has survived, apparently Seabrights are notoriously difficult to rear, or so we've been told.
Elizabeth, too be honest I'm not sure, we were given a mix of eggs and I'm going to have to wait for the giver to visit and tell me who is who.
Oh look at proud mum with her adorable chicks - black and white in the same hatch - is that usual?
