Oushka Posted March 11, 2008 Share Posted March 11, 2008 (edited) Good morning all Ive spent a few weeks reading thru Omlet forums and have found it to be really informative and friendly so thought I would finally join & introduce myself. I live in Co Durham, have a farm (& riding school/livery yard) and became addicted to chooks 3 months ago. I currently have 7 hens and 4 cockerels. With 2 eggs due to hatch this week - there are 7 in the incubator but candling has proved only 2 to be alive (altho Ive left the others in and keeping my fingers crossed!). They all live free range, organic lives and are currently gifting me with 7 eggs per day. My favourite Cockerel, Doodle is a handsome chap and loves to snuggle up - as long as noone else is watching! Im really excited about the hatch and my horses are becoming concerned that Im finding chickens equally as interesting as them! lol Katie Edited March 11, 2008 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Love your photos ... especially the ones of you and Dakota, just fab! ... he reminds me of a horse I ride up at our local riding school, called Guiness!
