...a chicken in the hearth.

That's really grate!
 
Ha ha. Those are actually for clipping a cigar lighter socket onto a 12v car battery. This then is used to feed the 2m multimode transceiver (my trusty Trio TR9000) just visible underneath.
 
It's a phoenix, it's rising from the ashes, well, when it wakes up that is... :lol:
 
Yes, she's very comfortable in the house.

We have to keep her from the other chickens as they bully her dreadfully. Even the cockerel gangs up on her. She has a limp and this puts her right at the bottom of the pecking order and then some so we now put her away overnight in the disused rabbit hutch and then she has the run of the garden (the other side to the chicken run) during the day.

My wife brings her in for a cuddle and at the weekend she settled down behind the settee on a pile of rags (we're decorating) and laid her first egg on Saturday, which shows how unstressed she is now. We've had an egg off her every day since.
