Re: Cucumber News
My friend has chickens (as well as sheep, ducks and a couple of wee cows), they eat everything that they are given. Yours must be very fussy Kotare.
My brother has an allotment, they also have quite a large back garden in the north-east of England. I think it's more to do with getting away from home and meeting with like-minded individuals in his case.

I thought allotments were for northerners to get away from the dark satanic mills and/or the wife :-)

Re: Cucumber News
There are community gardens and rented allotments here too. I think they are a lovely idea.
My hens wouldn't touch silverbeet at all. Mind you neither would I . Ugh!
Friend up the road gave hers chopped pumpkin which they noshed into when they felt like it.
Know several folk back in the UK keeping a couple of hens in their back gardens as it is allowed per bylaws. I rather like the couple of pals whose hens house in an eglu. I rather like the look and materials used but think wouldn't be OK for the sun conditions here.
Not sure if they are fed skinned cucumbers though

Re: Cucumber News
Some rather juicy cucumber news has just landed on my desk at Cucumber HQ.
People keep finding cucumbers at '50 Shades Darker' screenings
I bet no one is leaving cucumbers behind in NZ.

I literally laughed out loud today, our local organic health food shop had beautiful cucumbery specimens... I mean they were truly a work of art, fat, perfectly round, a foot long......... but $7.80 each!!!!!!

I cannot remember if cucumbers were served at all.
