Jules.

Gertrude & Rosa are here :-)

Recommended Posts

They are not the SLW & Cream Legbars we were hoping for, Gertrude is a Bluebelle & Rosa is a Speckledy. We got them today from Pimlotts Poultry.

We have put them in the eglu, & Buzz & Poppy have de camped to the little shed for a few nights. Not sure if that's the best thing :? but it will have to do. We did try to swop the hens over so that the newies spent the night in the shed, but they woudln't come out of the run, & Poppy got in there with them & had a go at Gertrude when she got too close :roll:

We've decided to let Buzz & Poppy free-range in the netted off area during the day while they all get used to each other, then let them out one evening next week all together. Hopefully lots of treats will iron out any squables.

Congratulations Jules :D

I'm off to meet Karen and William from Pimlotts Poultry now to collect my 3 babies - a warren, a black rock and a bluebelle (hopefully as lovely as yours!) :wink:

 

Enjoy your girls,

Bellekatz glad the egg drought has finished :lol:

Our Rosa looks like she's going to be really soft & cuddly too like yours- she's Ethan's girl & I can imagine him walking around with her everywhere. She has a few feather quills growing on her legs which looks cute- at first I thought she had bruises on her legs :oops:
