Purplemaniacs Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Yes it is one year since we got our first girls, Henny Penny and Ebony from Omlet complete with their lovely . It has been quite a year, we fell in love with them and shortly after added Ivory and Latte along with extra bits on the run. We then decided that 4 wasn't enough and got a that is still empty but hopefully that will be in use soooooon. We have had 754 eggs so far. It has not all been easy, we have had pecking problems, broodiness, softies and a poorly hen to cope with and sadly Henny Penny died a few weeks ago. But keeping hens is great, plans for our second year of chickens.......build a walk in run, start to use the and get more girls perhaps ones that lay or or or perhaps one of each Thanks for all your help during the year, it is great to know that the omleteers are there when help is needed. If you are reading the forum while you are thinking about chickens go for it, I am so pleased that we did. Thanks everyone. Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Purplemaniacs Posted March 3, 2009 Author Share Posted March 3, 2009 Happy Henniversary! (has it really been a year? ) Yes we have had Ebony and the Eglu for a year and it is even longer since we came to see you. Can't believe that I would not hold one of your girls then, now I like a hen cuddle Chrissie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sarah B Posted March 4, 2009 Share Posted March 4, 2009 Hello fellow henniversary person! I too have just passed the year mark getting my Tikka and Madras on the 28th Feb 08. Tikka still does her sometimes iffy eggs and they are both having a bit of a moult at the moment but it's so lovely to see how they have blossomed! They both have their own personalities though Tikka leads the pecking order! They follow me everywhere in the garden if they think treats are coming! I'm glad I did it though OH isnt as the garden is destroyed LOL. Good old hens! Sarah x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
