Ha ha - and neither the lamb nor the goat seem to be bothered either.  Nice one!

James, have just blown your pictures up. What kind of hens are the white ones? I have several like it but have never known what they were.

Sheila, the father was a Light Sussex but the mother could have been one of various breeds. The cockerel that is on the sheeps/goat back I think is 100% Light Sussex as is one of his sisters. However, there is one that is pure white and I have no idea what she is I'm afraid. Sorry I can't help any more than that but I have no other adult hens that are white so all I know is she is a LS cross with something!
