Clash City Rocker Posted February 2, 2008 Author Share Posted February 2, 2008 Seems to be getting on fine, there was an initial "stand-off" followed by an "massive ruck" for a couple of minutes, left them all to get on with it, and now they're all wandering round like old mates.

Ain't Nobody Here Posted February 2, 2008 Share Posted February 2, 2008 Joey Ramone had Marfan Syndrome, same as me . Didn't know that . He was very tall . My OH got called Joey Ramone when he was sent out on his stag do with a tinsel wig and a leather jacket . (Not sure where the fishnets and miniskirt fitted in though ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clash City Rocker Posted February 2, 2008 Author Share Posted February 2, 2008 She was from the "Domestic Fowl Trust" in Honeybourne, nr Evesham, Worcestershire. (cost a tenner). I left all 4 chickens wandering around the garden while at a football match (Worcester 2 V Blyth Spartans 2) this afternoon, and when I got home (5.45 pm) all 4 were huddled up in the Eglu. There does not appear to be any problems, (hopefully)!!! The name Ramone is a reference to "The Ramones" as already pointed out by a few of you, another option for her was "Buzzcock" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clash City Rocker Posted February 3, 2008 Author Share Posted February 3, 2008 Quick update on the chicken I bought yesterday and put straight into the garden with the 3 already here. There doesn't appear to be any problems, as posted yesterday there was a "massive ruck" on arrival which we let them get on with and within a couple of hours they were all wandering round together. All 4 chickens slept in the Eglu without any hassle and today (24 hrs after their first meeting) they all appear to be getting along fine. The new girl "Ramone" is using the feeder & glug, although at the moment isn't intrested in "treats". She also seems to have an "upset stomach" but I'm sure thats from the 30 minutes in the back of a car, new environment and different food. Luckily all seems fine!!!

Clash City Rocker Posted February 29, 2008 Author Share Posted February 29, 2008 Quick update. Ramone (the White one) laid her first egg today (29.02.08 ). Had no problems with any of them since they were all thrown in together for the initial "S"Ooops, word censored!""!!!! Looking forward to the 4 egg day now.

WitchHazel Posted March 1, 2008 Share Posted March 1, 2008 Confgratulations on your first Ramone egg! She's gorgeous. Is she a Light Sussex (or a Light Sussex cross?). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clash City Rocker Posted March 1, 2008 Author Share Posted March 1, 2008 Light Sussex according to the supplier (Domestic fowl trust) but if I was telling the truth I really don't know . She was bought for the sole purpose of being a different colour to the other three!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
