Benji

Thought you might like to see some video of Sir Benjamin!

Here he is being chased by Wilma: (this is how he gets his exercise)!

After that, it's time for cuddles:

He's  pretty spunky (sometimes)!

Louise decide to make a nest in his cage:

Remember?

Sunday's sunrise..

So pretty when the sunlight shines on the tops of the trees!

Four of the girls sitting on a branch in the run.

Benji with one of the hens that doesn't attack him:

He's starting to come out of his cage for longer periods of time each day. 

Of course he ALWAYS has to keep an eye on Wilma and Louise! 

He's still NOT crowing though.......
