Laura & CTB Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Thought you might like to see the gorgeous boy I fell in love with at the South of England show today.........

Valkyrie Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 He certainly is a handsome fella. I like his comb - looks like he is wearing a beret. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
..lay a little egg for me Posted June 6, 2008 Share Posted June 6, 2008 Yes, I thought it looked like a beret and his wattles could be the necktie and hey, yes, he is a french painter!! Sneak him home and call him Monet! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjules Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Yes, I thought it looked like a beret and his wattles could be the necktie and hey, yes, he is a french painter!! Sneak him home and call him Monet! Ah, oui madame! Very nice looking - what is he, a Wyandotte? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 He's lovely . Monet would have been a fantastic name . Could start a theme for new chicken owners ..... Poussin (geddit ) Picasso (cubist ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janty Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 I thought that he might be some sort of silver brahma...maybe a silver partridge brahma. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjules Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 That's much more likely Janty. I just saw the rose comb and thought Wyandotte because I have one! I forgot brahmas have a rose comb too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 I really love brahmas. I often wonder how my boys are getting on at their new home (remember that my spice girls turned out to be spice boys). How sad am I! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
superjules Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Oh Janty, bless you. You must miss them. I wish I had the room for big chooks, I love looking at the brahmas at our local poultry centre. The girls always seem to be wearing saddles though as the boys are so hefty and look like they are not overly sympathetic about having a headache!! Might go for some brahma bantams one day. They have columbian bantams at Thorne's and I'm a sucker for that sussex colouring! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Here is my gorgeous Buffy. She is a buff columbian brahma. and here is Buffy with Kylie, my gold partridge brahma miniature. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted June 7, 2008 Share Posted June 7, 2008 Meant to say, these pics were taken at Christmas when they were about 5 or 6 months old. Both girls have matured since then...and grown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Laura & CTB Posted June 8, 2008 Author Share Posted June 8, 2008 Maybe we should get Omlet to make an extra large size eglu Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 You'd be surprised how little space the big ones take up. Three can fit in the cube nesting box when they need to. It is quite amusing seeing all those feathery bums sticking up in the air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
esta Posted June 8, 2008 Share Posted June 8, 2008 He is gorgeous! If you go on the clubs gallery and type in bev, he is called kev and he is on the second page second picture (in my album).* click on the white chook, eben though the bantam pic is mine 2! He is an old english game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
