My partner gave me two gifts for the garden:
This one is for Emma, I couldn't resist. See Emma, someone else has muddy feet, lol.

April 24th, Beautiful Day
What a fantastic day, sunny and warm. I've been working in the garden all morning and now I am beat, so taking a break. Hopefully this is the start of some good weather. I took a half an hour and sat on the deck, pure heaven, birds singing, squirrel chattering, chickens roaming around. So.....I took a few pictures:

I am told it is your birthday. Happy Birthday.
I compliment on you on your excellent choice of date. x
Glad you had a nice birthday, the sun shines on the righteous so they say. :)
Emma likes the feet, hers aren't that bad today, she went in the river and washed them. (Looks like your chook has scaly leg OC, are you treating it? Sorry tell me to mind my own business if you like....!)
Thanks Cherry Pie, is it your B Day as well then?
lol Jan, I wouldn't know about righteous! I just went out to take a look at the chickens legs. There is dried mud going up them making them look grayish but you might be right. If so, what do you treat it with?
Happy Birthday! Those are cool statues, what lovely gifts.
It's a mite that burrows into the skin OC, the right leg there is very swollen and crusty. Over here we can buy Scaly Leg Mite lotion from the petshops, or vets have some better stuff, you can also rub Vaseline (do you have that?) into the leg, it's supposed to suffocate the mites, it may help but not sure it's much good. Ivermectin is the product we can get from the vets. Take a look at this page -http://66.102.9.104/search?q=cache:fGoXcyMgJboJ:ohioline.osu.edu/vme-fact/pdf/0019.pdf+Scaly+leg+mites%2Btreatment&hl=en&ct=clnk&cd=1&gl=uk If that doesn't work as a link, put Scaly leg mites into Google, there's lots of advice there. Luckily I never got any chickens with that, but budgies are prone to it on the faces more than legs.
Thanks Jan, I will see what I can get. Glad you pointed that out to me.
Happy birthday. Nice statues and I see cute squirrel has put in an appearance!
Thanks Mo.
