Ain't Nobody Here Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 What a fantastic picture . It's so sharp and clear and don't their combs/wattles look great against the snow . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Fabulous pic! I love it. It would make a great chicken themed christmas card. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeckyBoo Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Hey Nuggywoo, I've got a "Bob" who's four months as well! Looks about the same in development, mine is a Rhode Island Red, not crowing yet but then he's got at least one, maybe two dominant boys above him What are you going to do with your BOb? Can you keep him? Boys are SUCH stunners, I can't keep them sadly, my Bob is going to be my Easter dinner! BeckyBoo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plum Posted February 4, 2009 Share Posted February 4, 2009 Good idea. I've just done that. Is there a copyright? Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nuggywoo Posted February 4, 2009 Author Share Posted February 4, 2009 Good idea. I've just done that. Is there a copyright? Thanks Should've thought of that! Can someone make the picture smaller as you can't see the full beauty of Bob! Beckyboo - yes I'm keeping Bob, I got him as I wanted a cockerel. Thanks all for the replies. Oh and it's also my desktop wallpaper Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seagazer Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 What a fantastic photo and your chickens are gorgeous. What lovely colouring. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atsw Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Fantastic picture. Nothing, whatsoever, will persuade my girls to even set foot in all the snow we had last night. Usually Fifi will venture out in most weather, the 1" we had on Monday didn't deter her, but the 4" to 5" that landed last night seems to be more than she's prepared to try, even treats won't temp her out!

Plum Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 I've got some snow chooks, They think snow is a treat and peck away at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
High Speed Mum Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 I am so pleased with my three girls. In spite of the snow here in Upper Cam in Gloucestershire I am still getting an egg from each of my lovely girls. They were late in starting to lay, not until July but they are just soldiering on and on in this freezing weather. I think they deserve a special treat. Hope everybody is as lucky as me my hens usually go off lay in October and come back into lay on Christmas Eve but these new ones from Eglu just haven't stopped.

helenmb Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Great pictures! My lot wouldn't come out - it was 6 or so inches deep though. Here is a picture of their run and "shower curtain snow baffle" you can just make out them through the bottom of the curtain - no doubt wondering what I'm doing and where are their mealworms!

McChook Posted February 5, 2009 Share Posted February 5, 2009 Nothing, whatsoever, will persuade my girls to even set foot in all the snow we had last night. Same here! I was waving a whole bowl of sweetcorn in front of them this morning (I wanted some snow chickens pictures) but they were having none of it!

Luvachicken Posted February 6, 2009 Share Posted February 6, 2009 I think your pic looks great too. My chickens are meant to arrive next week - I wonder if there will still be snow for them to play in ?!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulip Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Mine were spoilt with free-ranging on Tuesday when I couldnt get to work. There was a queue for the dustbath though.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
atsw Posted February 9, 2009 Share Posted February 9, 2009 By Sunday mine eventually decided the snow wasn't so bad after all and came out to play in the Sunshine. Mind you, Fifi and Di still spent a fair amount of time finding small patches of 'snow free' ground to stand on.
