Janty Posted February 12, 2009 Author Share Posted February 12, 2009 For a bird that hasn't been handled much, he is very insistent on jumping up and being snuggled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patricia W Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 aaah!! How lovely... What I don't understand is how garden centres can sell cockerels - or chickens in general? I'm pleased to say ( she says hopefully) we don't seem to have any around here. Out of interest I'd love to know how far they've spread. Is it one particular chain?

Janty Posted February 12, 2009 Author Share Posted February 12, 2009 Cyril was in an Atlantic Superstore. He is in good condition but he was on his own and bored. We have himwith us in the conservatory tonight and he keeps looking at his reflection in the conservatory doors. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooks Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I had to look at him again!, he's just wonderfully handsome! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 He is lovely & quite plump for a pekin. If I'd lived nearer I'd have had him off you. I adore pekins. I've also got a soft spot for cockerels. My neighbours don't mind cockerels - good job, as I have 4. Oh Cyril is so lovely! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewhitehouse Posted February 12, 2009 Share Posted February 12, 2009 I'm so glad I didn't see this post at the start or I'd have been off to collect him! I can't bear the thought of animals left on their own. That's why we always end up with for example 3 gerbils when we went for two Glad he's sorted though - he looks so happy.

fluffyknickers Posted February 13, 2009 Share Posted February 13, 2009 Ooh he is lovely - looks very cuddly. Wish I could come and see him at your meet now. Will hopefully be around for the next one. Bet it will be hard to say goodbye to him. x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Janty Posted February 13, 2009 Author Share Posted February 13, 2009 We have said goodbye to him. He went for it totally this morning and woke us up at 4am. Luckily he was in a cat box in the conservatory but by gum he was loud. Jo said to bring him over so we did. He is now strutting his stuff with a load of ladies.
