craftyhunnypie Posted May 17, 2008 Share Posted May 17, 2008 My hubby has gone chicken mad! We went to a place at Weston & came homed with another 2 chickens 11 weeks old. Another black rock & an amber star. Lovely they are. They are still in the box at the moment - due to go in with the others in a minute. I have photos of our new flock on my computer, but they all need resizing to go on the forum. So I'll have to do all that tomorrow, as making lasagne & chook watching tonight. So in our garden now, we have 10 chickens & we also have Bumble & Boon the chicks. Bringing the total to 12!!!! Think hubby has names. After our hols we are getting 2 blue/ green egg layers too. I think that will be it for his flock then.....8 chickens in his little flock. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted May 18, 2008 Author Share Posted May 18, 2008 The black rock is called Maggie May & the Amber is Peggy Sue! They are all roosted together in a line tonight on the balcony rail. Really funny to see! Going to get a photo later. They are brilliant! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lisaroo2 Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Congrats on the new girls! I'd love some lemon splash cochins but we've not got the room as yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted May 18, 2008 Author Share Posted May 18, 2008 Our Boon is a partridge cochin and at 5 weeks old, her foot feathers are huge. I like cochins, very pretty. I bet lemon splash ones are nice. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
