But, but, but... You have a hen as your avatar!!! You must have chickens


That puzzled me, too.


I should change it! I used a hen on a long ago pun thread about M-J's chickens. So it's not eggxactly accurate.

Do they have to be ear tagged?

Or slap marked?

PM me your address and I'll send you a dozen snails, daily until our garden is free of the little devils.

You'll need to ear-tag them before you post them.

It wouldn't surprise me if DEFRA insist on ear tagging them.
