Stevie Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Bright it maybe,but i lurve the colour orange and think it looks fantastic! The Omelet man turned up this morning with chooks & Eglu and set it all up for me. Im not very original with their names so no laughing-they're Sage & Onion.The Gingernut is Onion and the Miss Pepperpot is Sage.Onion seems to be the bolder one and Sage is a bit timid,but neither are frightened of my dog or myself.They do move away when he has a sniff,but it should get better in time. Never knew chickens could be so fascinating! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 I think it looks fantastic too! I would never part with my orange one. Your garden looks very neat and tidy the eglu looks fab amongst your plants. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bellekatz Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 Fantastic pics - love the girls and your garden! The orange eglu seems to fit in really well and will brighten up the wet days no end! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stevie Posted April 4, 2008 Author Share Posted April 4, 2008 My dog (Vegas) has been fantastic with the chooks and hasnt growled,barked or shown any sort of behaviour which i would worry about,but i was pretty confident he was gonna be alright as he's quite placid.He just likes to watch them! I love the colour orange anyway and thought-why try and hide the Eglu.Be bold and make a statement! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted April 4, 2008 Share Posted April 4, 2008 I like the orange ones. They remind me of lovely halloween pumpkins as they are so cheerful. Congratulations . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stevie Posted April 4, 2008 Author Share Posted April 4, 2008 Stevie your chooks are great and your garden is lovely it looks like something out of one of those posh gardening mags!! Thank you! I've spent a lot of time & money on the garden over the years...and now its poultry time... I got them in the Eglu a while ago and ended up using a broom to persuade them in.I did try using a torch which did draw them towards the Eglu,but then my dog wandered over and they went back.
