redfrock Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 (edited) Introducing Cough, our Chicken of Fate .... She is mid moult, settling into her new home well, and eating and drinking properly. The other girls are very curious and rather boisterous around her run, but we shall take it very slowly and hopefully be able to integrate her fully over time. Not the best photos - but then she did keep insisting on showing me her bum, so I had to snap these quickly! (Can somebody help me edit these please? Have used photobucket and these are sized on small! The only other option is tiny and then they are barely visible . They seem to have changed thier sizing options and it is all peculiar) now sorted!

Christian Posted August 25, 2008 Share Posted August 25, 2008 Lovely looking girl Not sure if we can make them bigger tbh. I use medium size when posting or editing pictures, but they need to be modified from the original. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I use medium size when posting or editing pictures, but they need to be modified from the original. I wanted to make them smaller Christian! They are showing up as enormous on my computer on this thread! I used medium initially but they were simply huge so I resized them down to small but they are still really big! I am having to scroll across the screen to see the whole photo. Oh well! But, yes she is a beauty isn't she and good natured too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Switched off pc, rebooted and bingo - as they should be! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redfrock Posted August 26, 2008 Author Share Posted August 26, 2008 She's lovely! Sorry to come to things late, but why is she a Chicken of Fate? (ooh, rhymes!) that's ok! She turned up in my friend's father's garden about 4 weeks ago and had been 'roughing it'. He eventually realised that she wasn't simply visiting but living in his garden so he started feeding her. All this time she was still a true free ranger, so we are not sure how she escaped Mr Fox. I didn't find out until Thursday when I got a phone call asking for help as he was going on one of his regular business trips to the USA on Sunday (ie 3 days time). So off we went and rescued her on Saturday, managing to purchase an eglu on Friday night so that she has somewhere safe to live until she is ok to be integrated with our 10. At the moment I am worming her and barrier powdering her as a precaution and keeping her on just pellets to settle her tummy etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
