			<title>New Chicks </title>
			<link>http://www.bedfordlodge.co.uk/blog.php?entry=entry100721-142006</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Blob did not manage to hatch out her summer batch of eggs. I think this might have been due to a fight that occured in the hen enclosure between a Pidgeon and our hen Cocoa. Blob either joined in or was frightened off the nest, as the when I did my usual check I was surprised to find her scared to return and the eggs had cooled.<br />I went and purchased three chicks instead and she took then under her wing.<br />We now have one of each, black, white and grey.  <br /><br /><img src="images/Blob&#039;s_adopted_chicks.JPG" border="0" alt="" /> ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[Blob did indeed hatch out three lovely chicks in the summer, here are thier pictures.<br />We have one yellow Brahma and two Partridge Greys. They are much more flighty than the others and only about 2/3rd&#039;s the size but they certainly make more noise. Adorable.<br />]]></description>

			<title>Babies at the Bedford</title>
			<link>http://www.bedfordlodge.co.uk/blog.php?entry=entry090729-195724</link>
			<description><![CDATA[On the 13th July, Spike, our wonderful hen, hatched 4 lovely chicks.<br />I am totally enamoured with them, as they are so delightful to watch.<br />We don’t have our own cockerel so I had to buy the eggs in and swap them for her own. The little ones we now have are Rhode Island Reds.<br /><br />We are currently keeping Spike and her brood in a separate, purpose built pen, once they are old enough to be sexed I will work out what to do with them.<br />I will keep the females if I’m lucky enough to have any.<br /><br />And as if not to be outdone, another of our ladies went broody. <br />Blob made a halfhearted effort at it for 3 or 4 days but then decided to stay put.<br />We bought her some eggs too and she has now been incubating them for 10 days.<br />So we should hear the patter of more tiny claws again before too long.<br /><br /><img src="images/First_sight_of_Spike_%5C&#039;s_chick.JPG" border="0" alt="" /><br /><br /><img src="images/Mum_and_Chick_at_1_week_old.JPG" width="720" height="540" border="0" alt="" /> ]]></description>

			<title>Painted Ladies Arrived</title>
			<link>http://www.bedfordlodge.co.uk/blog.php?entry=entry090604-161028</link>
			<description><![CDATA[Last weekend we had a wonderful butterfly display in the garden. All at once there were dozens flitting around the sky. I stood in my flower bed for half an hour trying to get a decent picture. I don&#039;t think the butterflies liked it much but they did put up with it. <br />Apparently they had flown all the way from Africa to get here.<br /> <img src="images/Painted_lady_May09.jpg" width="720" height="583" border="0" alt="" /> ]]></description>
