Barbara Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Hello Omleteers, I've got a chicken who desperately needs a new home and I'm hoping that one of you can help. She is a 2 year old Bolero Blue and she is in the Stockport area. She lays beautiful blue eggs and she's lost her companion recently and is very sad and lonely. Her owners don't want to get another hen and would be happier if they could rehome this lovely girl instead. If you're interested, please e-mail me at barbara@omlet.co.uk as I have contact details for the owners. Many thanks in anticipation. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Never heard of that breed Barbara - any ideas what it looks like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara Posted August 1, 2006 Author Share Posted August 1, 2006 When Omlet first started, we had the Bolero Blue for sale and basically it's an Araucana/Light Sussex cross - hence the blue eggs. I'll see if I can find a photo somewhere but don't hold your breath . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Ahh, I googled and didn't come up with anything. A picture would help people decide. I'd have it straight away if I had any space Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eyren Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 I'm glad that Stockport is too far away for me - otherwise I might be cursing the fact that I just spent a small fortune on some glamorous new friends for Migsy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karen & co. Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 I'd love to have her, but would be a little worried about introducing one to four established ladies Plus hopefully we are going away for 2 weeks at the weekend so it would be unfair to leave them karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Karen & co. Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 What will you cal her? or does she come with a name? karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JellyB Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 Oh, hadn't thought about changing her name, is that the right thing to do? My rescue cat was already called Boris but I like that and it suited him perfectly so didnt' change it. I'll see what she is already called - have to wait to see if I can have her first tho' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chocchick Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 I just keep telling myself the others would pick on it My plan to sneak baby chicks/eggs in was foiled He doesn't know it yet, but if we buy this mythical house with land and I'm allowed loads of chickens there may be fluffy ones, bantams, or even ones with fluffy hairdos Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 You can come and visit my girls any time Choccy, I have bantams and one with a fluffy hairdo (her sense of direction leaves a bit to be desired ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JellyB Posted August 1, 2006 Share Posted August 1, 2006 I am pleased to say that Daisy has a new home have a couple of pics but it was getting a bit dark. she is a beautiful silver grey colour. There were a few pecks from Gertrude & Mabel but they seem to have settled down and are all snuggled up in the eglu but I will be up early to let them out and can partition off a bit of the run for Daisy with nice food & treats til they all get used to each other. The 2 little girls who brought her (with mum & dad) were happy that she was moving into a pink eglu ok - see if the pics work now http://img460.imageshack.us/img460/741/daisy1hx3.jpg http://img313.imageshack.us/img313/2452/daisy2sv6.jpg http://img313.imageshack.us/img313/4218/daisy3nj4.jpg http://img313.imageshack.us/img313/9346/3girlsnv8.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
