Day 1...

...hi. I'm Bluebell (and I'm a Bluebelle) and today, me and 4 others made a planned escape from Warwickshire Chicken Coop.  We snuck into some cardboard boxes in the back of an Astro Black Mini and hot-footed it with Jane to the suburbs of Birmingham.  I don't think Jenna saw us get out - we miss her already but am sure that we will find life good here.

The only thing is that we are not sure of the rules?  We got out into the darkness of a coop and made for the sawdust that was just asking to be eaten - yukkkkk, won't try that again!  I let the others go down the ramp when it was revealed a little later and watched them sort out the pecking order from the safety of the top of the ramp.  Snowdrop came back and climbed over me for a little while but she was soon back into the fray and it was just me not joining in.  Maybe I should have gotten in there earlier but eventually the angle of the ramp got the better of me and I joined in the fun.

Sometimes we go back up and then back down again, we eat pellets, turn over the bark, eat the corn that arrived late afternoon and how about this...we got some mealworms...I am sure that they are supposed to move but we get them before they escape ;)

This is the rear view of me watching the others find their feet - maybe I'll find mine later?

This is where we live (before the bits and pieces were added):

I'll leave you all there and go and join the others for some snap so as I don't go to bed on an empty stomach.

Oh, and I should add that Sky and Rosie the cats from next door came on the fence and watched us and watched us and watched us... Snowdrop did a great job of warning us about the predator risk but after a while we got bored of them watching us and they got bored of watching us but well done Snowdrop for showing team spirit.
