I sometimes think my darling Calico cat is a ULB, but she is easy on the eyes and can be very entertaining. Much like your banties?

Not a bit of it, chuckling away, busy scratching and pecking away, I love them - if I lived nearer I would take them off your hands (the farmer would object of course but I have found ways of getting round that) - trouble is that if (and it's a bit if) they do lay an egg it is so small it is hardly worth doing anything with it. I had a very nasty bantam cockerel once who would fly at your wellie tops like a bullet when you opened the hen house door.
