Bit distressing seeing him laying on the ground, poor old sod.
I cannot do anything else, he seems he does not anyone around..
Ah well.

As I was leaving I could hear his chickens making hell of a noise, I undid the coop door and it was putrid, filthy, eggs everywhere but could not tell how old they were, Went and told him but he showed little interest., I phoned his son who said he would visit.
I let the chickens out for some air, daylight and to scratch for worms or whatever.
Water drinker and food island empty.
The heat/daylight lights were on, hence the eggs which I threw away in a hedge outside his fence line for Charlie to eat..
I raked everything out into a pile, put fresh straw down, filled the food and water up, sprinkled Jeyes Fluid, quite a nice coop.
I told him and he actually said thank you.
I hope to see his son if he comes, he will have to talk through the window same as I did
I will be back for eggs now, he cannot possibly eat all they lay.

You're a good neighbour Major.

Why do you need to go shopping - your neighbors all seem to be farmers, one has a herd of 200 deer, another keeps chickens and goats and doesn't eat the chicken eggs.

I do not converse with troll guests especially those who cannot read specific script.
