redfrock Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 (edited) 1 week after they came home, and 6 days of antibiotics later, here are the promised photos of my new girls. I am still deciding on the names for 2 of them. Today was their first taste of freedom, grass and real sunshine on their backs - something they have certainly never known before. Normally we let our girls out 2 or 3 days after we get them but I wanted then to have their full dose of antibiotics and most of their flubenvet first. The red netting is allowing the 2 flocks to free range seperately (and it is working!) Out they come, 1 by 1 Our Barnvelder - head girl (of the newbies at least) Chilling! Our silkie Tallulah, Buff orp Artichoke, and Indian Game enjoy the sunshine I love this sunshine! Artichoke peers at the camera Our aracauna is a bit more camera shy!

Plum Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 They look as though they are really enjoying the freedom. Talullah has such a pretty soft face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tulip Posted March 1, 2009 Share Posted March 1, 2009 At last! (Not that I'm impatient at all ) Mate, they are stunning. I am already in love with Tallulah and Artichoke - they look like total babies! Can't wait to meet them. You're right, the Barnevelder is small - she'll soon fill out. I should bring Chive down and show you how big she'll be soon!! Ooh, I'm so pleased for you. And very jealous of the blue eggs already. *Looks accusingly at Coriander* I take it Andy's pleased to finally get his Orp See you on Sunday! xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
