helen5848 Posted February 14, 2009 Share Posted February 14, 2009 I got my chickens at last - 2 gingernut rangers and 1 miss pepperpot - i've fallen in love with them already. They've already come for a look around their run and don't appear to be in any hurry to go to bed. I;ve already been able to tempt one to eat corn from my hand too. They're great. Just trying to think of suitable names - mavis, rita and blanche or nigella, martina and flo are the options so far. Oh and quiet so far too! Although I don't know how long this will last! Anyway just to say thanks to all of you that responded to all my questions / concerns that I have posted over the last couple of months. I will hopefully be able to get some pictures of them on shortly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

helen5848 Posted February 14, 2009 Author Share Posted February 14, 2009 Thanks, i'm slightly swayed towards corrie names too! I can't wait for morning to go and check on them and feed them their porridge to warm them up! Am I mad? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
