TAJ Posted April 2, 2009 Author Share Posted April 2, 2009 O redered them mid Feb, but have been waiting for them as the Barnvelder's take longer to sex than the other 2 and I wanted them all at the same age. Certainly I will get photos on here at the weekend. Tracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Congratulations. Names shortlisted? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAJ Posted April 3, 2009 Author Share Posted April 3, 2009 Congratulations. Names shortlisted? You do have to see them to name them don't you? As our Light Sussex is called Rye (town in East Sussex) I was thinking Surrey for the Dorking (county Dorking is in), then the cream legbar has to be something like 'punk head' due to the hairdo, then the Barnvelder will have to have a glamourous name to go with her posh feathers. Still open to ideas. Tracy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
