Guest Posted October 26, 2008 Share Posted October 26, 2008 We went to pick up our new Bantum girls today and popped in to see Jules on the way. Had some of that infamous lemon drizzle cake! It was absolutely gorgeous so I'll be giving that a go soon! Lovely to meet you all and your girls And then we went to get the girls, here's some pics once we'd got them home Probably not the best way to hold a chook but they were wriggling around something chronic! They're a lovely colour. Don't ask me who is who as I haven't worked out how to tell 'em apart just yet! We've had to trim Lucy and Eleanor's flight feathers because they keep jumping over the divide and whilst they never used to bother Bea, Lucy had a bit of a go at Martha and Prudence. Hopefully we've nipped that in the bud! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
