Ok so roast is gone
Yesterday i cleaned out the chicken hotel, put all new fresh straw in their nesting boxes (which they are STILL using to poo in), rinsed out and put all new fresh water in the hanger, their pot & old baby bath, refilled their feed hanger and gave them all fresh veggies in pots (so they don't have gunk lying around everywhere).
Put some new fresh straw on the ground to scratch around in, dusted their beds, the old straw room and them last night.

Took THIS photo this morning and i THINK but am not 100% sure that it looks like their combs are becoming a little darker and some seem to have straightened even if only slightly - what do you think?

We've been letting them out of a morning when we are home all day but have had no issues getting them back in at night or even during the day if we need to go somewhere.
Penelope seems to like being out the most, she's the first out and seems to adventure a little more than the others, but no escapees as yet.

Still no eggs i don't know if we just have duds, if they are not ready or if we are doing something wrong?
Hopefully a bit more sun and outside time will encourage them a bit more and once we get a bit of $$ behind us possibly after my b'day in 2 weeks i will go and buy that book
