March is now over and April is here! To celebrate April fools day we thought it would be nice to reflect on some chicken and egg pranks that have happened over the years! Hopefully you avoid any pranks today! 1. Square shaped Eggs! In 2014, ITV 'reported' that a farm in Suffolk called 'Freedom Food Farm' had reared chickens which laid square eggs! ITV commented: "While the shape makes it convenient for eating, it also means making egg sarnies has become even simpler." We can't decide if we would prefer square eggs or not! 2.

Can you believe it's that time of year again? Clocks will be going forward an hour this Sunday - so don't forget to change your automatic door openers time so that they can still function as desired!  Not only are the clocks changing this Sunday but it is Mother's Day!

If you asked the general public which animal is more closely related to the magnificient T-Rex, the crocodile or the chicken? 9 times out of 10, they would answer: 'the crocodile of course'. However, our reptile friend is in fact NOT the closest relation (in evolutionary terms) to the T-rex - it is probably consider more like a distant cousin! It boils down to the amino-acid sequence (proteins) from T-Rex collagen being more similar to a chicken's than any other creature currently alive!  Ok... so a chicken isn't quite a dinosaur like the ones in Jurassic Park. Instead, they are...
