prunio Posted November 30, 2008 Share Posted November 30, 2008 Hi I'd love to see more pics as the eggs I bought off you on Ebay are due to hatch on 17 December - the brothers and sisters of yours! Venessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted November 30, 2008 Author Share Posted November 30, 2008 Hi Vanessa - have you candled? It's so exciting & the little black one I've called Button is a definite frizzle! I'm so pleased. I could see it at about 3 to 4 days old. The wing feathers curl. It was fluffier than the other one at a day old too. Fingers crossed for a succesful hatch!

craftyhunnypie Posted December 11, 2008 Author Share Posted December 11, 2008 I have no idea how Bingo is going to turn out - What colour? He / she looks partridge to me? Kind of silver partridge? Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

craftyhunnypie Posted December 16, 2008 Author Share Posted December 16, 2008 Here's the latest pics of Button (black frizzle) & Bingo (possible partridge) at 3 weeks old today! I've got a feeling Button is male & Bingo female - which I'm hoping for - but only time will tell. They are such good little chicks. I use fine knit dish cloths for all my chicks I've ever hatched, on top of shavings of course. But these pair seem to be toilet trained on the cloths. Which is so easy for cleaning each day. Bless them. They seem to know when it's night time too & settle down for the night on teddy. Don't jump Bingo! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted December 17, 2008 Share Posted December 17, 2008 That bottom picture is priceless. The expression on Buttons face is so funny. I can feel a caption competition coming on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted December 18, 2008 Share Posted December 18, 2008 That bottom picture is priceless. The expression on Buttons face is so funny. I can feel a caption competition coming on. You see.. anyone who wasn't into chickens would say....'what expression?... They're just chickens'. No-one else understands the subtle nuances of these sentient creatures' expressions like we do Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted December 19, 2008 Author Share Posted December 19, 2008 Of course they have expressions & they talk to you! Just wait until next weeks photos, they have really feathered up & starting to fill out too. They are right little characters & very pretty. They are getting very tame too now & love my company. 4 weeks old on Xmas eve eve (Tuesday). Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SAB Posted December 19, 2008 Share Posted December 19, 2008 Is Button saying "Gosh Bingo, that is some size of poo for such a little bird!" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
