'They'll nick anything these days.So I’ve been 182cm tall for as long as I can remember - just been for my NHS MOT and I’m 180cm. I haven’t had a bad parachute jump so where did the 2cms go
Corrected that for you.
Maybe I should look lower
Will need to check would you like pics.J

As promised.
4 in all, all seem very fit and healthy. Already being friendly and allowing me to stroke them without flinching except the first time.
The new des-res is not without its faults, the curve in the roof was there from the beginning as it had been standing outside the shop in the sun for too long. The tie-downs are to stop it blowing around/away when the Vent d'Autan blows. The paper bag is there to encourage them to go outside, it coverts a wire mesh window. I'll shift it once they have got their bearings.
Looking forward to their settling in. They are already interested in their surroundings, we deliberately leave the "grass" long in their enclosure, they hide in it and eat it. I had to take them back out of the box and put them on the ground floor. I'm hoping they will work out how to climb up the ramp when it gets dark, without me having to do it for them!
We spent the day at Bomber Command https://internationalbcc.co.uk/ really a very special place.

Of course I'd rather I didn't have to chase them one by one and put then in through the nesting boxes!

I've found with poultry that if you give them a cockerel, he'll put them to bed early. Hens on their own stay out 'til all hours, especially with lighter evenings, but if there's a cockerel you find them all neatly perched in their house beside him much earlier, by around teatime in some cases. I suppose that's why our American cousins call them roosters. Saves a lot of trouble trying to get them put away on summer evenings.
All the girls love a little bit of cockerel.
Some on 'ere are suffering from a loss of height, otherwise all elfy. Or turning into elfs.

She is not keen on lemonade as a rule, prefers Tonic!Does she like 7 UP too?
Oh and yes I had to get hold of them all and shove them up the ramp to bed. One of them fought like a fighting cock, luckily her talons weren't sharp!
With all the hens we've had till now they mostly put themselves to bed. so we can do without being woken in the morning by a horny cock!!
So to speak!!!
Great to see you back with us mate!

I see you've got leeks in there with them too, so you're halfway to cock-a-leekie soup already. Maybe see if they'll eat a bit of sage and onion as well, and they'll be more or less table ready.
