The reinventors are members of Transition Town Guildford, the practical reinventor working with another two members on an off-shoot group, the TTG Kitchen Gardeners' Society.
Last weekend we hosted a chook workshop in our backyard. We sent the neurotic kelpie on a play date with the golden retriever two doors away and let the chooks loose. They were remarkably unperturbed by the 40-odd people who invaded their backyard.
As well as discussing the ways of chooks, hen house construction, general chook health, the joys of rescuing battery hens and eating scones, cakes and biccies, we asked lovely vet B about Florence.
Florence is a bit more aggressive than Shirley and has a more distinct comb. We suspect her name should be Horace.
B looked critically at Florence. Commented on the angle of her bum feathers, and agreed. Florence is most likely Horace.
Once he starts crowing, something will have to be done. Neither of us is looking forward to it.
