hilaryf Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 Hi Its been a very exciting day as I collected my three beautiful girls and took them home to their brillant new (well nearly!) green eglu. Dulcie, Lucy and Maisie seem to have given their new abode their seal of approval and are settling in well. I have been in and out all afternoon like the proverbial mother hen clucking over them. I reckon I can already see three very different personalities emerging, although the OH thinks I have gone slightly mad! I am anticipating a long anxious night ahead.... Love the forum - even more so now I am a proper member with my lovely ginger girls. Hilary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chook n Boo Mum Posted March 30, 2009 Share Posted March 30, 2009 Welcome to the "Club"!!! Be prepared for them and the forum to take over your life...DH now often says "well ask Omlet" or "what's new in Omlet world today!" Obsession can be a wonderful thing... and be prepared for this expression from everyone who doesn't have chooks so just won't understand as you gabble on about them and their exploits Has it been said before that we love pictures.........
