Guest IB Posted July 11, 2010 Report Posted July 11, 2010 I've 2 x 2-yo hens going, 526 miles to me. 1 is sitting 11 days at marking, her last race was Eastbourne. The other is sitting chipping eggs at marking, she's still feeding a big youngster that I daren't move, and her last race was Leicester. I have been training them.
