thank you for the comment on the run......my husband mark really did me proud building it.

[poachedegg]

Congratulations - that is going to be a lot of eggs!

[Barkisland]

Aaah! They are gorgeous - I remember when mine looked like that, it's amazing how quickly they mature. I don't know how you are going to tell them apart though!

telling them apart is going to be hard......i did say to my hubby that i would paint their legs different colours with nail varnish ........but i think leg rings would be best

You're going to have mountains of lovely eggs!!

[helenmb]

They are lovely, congratulations. You are going to have fun thinking of a dozen names for them too! They look to have settled in already. Happy Days!

[Jules.]

Lovely girls- the light sussex are my favourites

[Guest]

Your white hens are so white! That, of course, will all change once they are free-ranging! Can't wait to get my Honeysuckle into a bath, but its pointless at the moment.......

[Cooks]

my sugar is a dirt muffin!, she looks like an amber star at the moment!

[moomin]

They are lovely

 

Scooby is a good name and very original

 

Be prepared to do no housework in the next few weeks it will go to rack & ruin whilst you spend hours watching them

[helenmb]

My white Splash Leghorn Pearl is very 'Splashed' at the moment too. Seems to always find a not-so-dry dirt bath every time .

[Cooks]

I know they love getting mucky!, mine were so mucky yesterday they were walking over the leaves picking them up on their feet as they went, I just wish I had had a camera to hand

I had to clean their feet

[blackgold]

Ahhh they are so gorgeous...... i have na empty eglu and it was going to be a spare but I cant decide whether to rescue some more exbatts or get some really different hens. i would love a blue egg layer... Anyone know which breed that is?

[Cooks]

hybrid - Skyline/columbine

 

pure breed - cream legbar

 

theres more I am sure, but I cant think off the top of my head

[mostin]

Gorgeous girlies. I had forgotten how narrow their bodies are when they are that young, my girls are so buxom now .

[blackgold]

it is funny how we forget. Was looking at the first day pics from our omlet hens, how the have changed.....
