baby bears mum Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 We collected Ginny (15 weeks), Hermione (17 weeks) and Lunar (17 weeks) today and they are snug in Cluckingham Palace as I type. They're lovely. The breeder said to keep them on growers pellets for a short time and I wondered if because of their age would they be allowed treats (only later in the day). Should have asked while I was there but DD was over excited (oh alright then so was I ). Will post piccies when the rain finally stops (sometime next year then ). Thanks for your advice and patience.

BarbaraJ Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 Mine were 17weeks and now 18 and are on layers mash and eating fine, maybe its different at 15weeks. i'm still staring at mine after a week lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 I would think treats in moderation would be fine as long as they mainly eat their pellets. Barbara J, I notice you have a Pied Suffolk like me - do you have a photo? (I've not noticed another one in anyone's signature before ... although I haven't been looking .)

baby bears mum Posted March 15, 2008 Author Share Posted March 15, 2008 Thanks Jules. OH (who wasn't at all interested in getting chickens ) is now insisting we change Eglu from Cluckiingham Palace to Eggworts (there's just no hope is there ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was sold it as something else but someone (sorry i forgot who) said she was a Pied suffolk. Let me know if she is the same as yours?

Ain't Nobody Here Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 She's very pretty . Totally different to mine. She has hardly any white but has a lovely greeny sheen when the sun shines. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BarbaraJ Posted March 15, 2008 Share Posted March 15, 2008 So maybe mines not one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 Now I've confuzzled everyone! ANH your pied suffolk looks more like the Bovans Nera that Barbara was told she had!! Well, either the breeders are cracking up or I am Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 ANH your pied suffolk looks more like the Bovans Nera that Barbara was told she had!! lol: What? . * rushes off to check the web for pictures of Bovans Nera * Looks like you're right . How will I break the news to Molly . I will ask the farmer next week when we go to get our new girl before I traumatise her (it'll be like telling her she's adopted .)
