Your course looks absolutely FAB - if you have the contact details I would appreciate them - seemed to have totally missed the thread! I would hesitate much less about hatching if I knew how to dispatch and prep the boys for the table

Alison is running a course in Sept near Preston. Might be nearer for you than Hampshire.

[alih]

errr... yes! Many thanks, will check it out. May even persuade OH to come

[HENthusiastic]

Like others have said; I cant believe |Ive missed this thread!! Congratulations Egluntine. Wonderfull little fluff balls. And how they grow! So hope you've got a girl there.

I was wondering what was happening with your hatching. Did you get cream legbar eggs from Raw Green Cottages? I understand she hasn't had any luck hatching them herself.

[Egluntyne]

I didn't in the end.....I seem to remember that her cockerel had dropped dead out of the blue.

[HENthusiastic]

Oh dear!

That would explain why she's had trouble hatching me a couple of cream legbars then!! (Would it be inappropriate to make a joke about the "blue" bit??)

First day in the big outdoors. (they will come in at night for another week or so)

 

 

No doubt about Anton's gender now. Look at those wattles.

[Redwing]

Bless! he looks like Claudia's bodyguard

[Griffin]

Awwww bless their little socks!

[Cooks]

oh how sweet are they!!!

[HENthusiastic]

awwwwwwwwwwwwwwww. GOrgeous. How beautiful are they.

[Jules.]

Do you think they might start ballroom dancing together soon?

[Egluntyne]

They are joined at the hip already. You see one and the other is never more than an inch away.

[Jules.]

[HENthusiastic]

Is that a whole inch? Bless them. Little darlings. Will it be difficult to introduce her to the flock on her own?

[Egluntyne]

I've added one to the gang before. It just takes a little more care.....and I'll be doing it again shortly, when Dolly Arrives.

 

Not entirely convinced that Claudia isn't in fact Claude, or should that be 'Clawed' as Him Indoors wryly observed this afternoon.

 

 

If she is Claudia, I have a fancy to get a Maran or a Speckledy or both to mix her with, before merging them with the flock.

[Cooks]

I noticed that little 'or both' lololololol I cant argue with those choices at all, I so hope she isn't a he.

[Egluntyne]

Anton and Claudia today.

 

I am now convinced that she is Claudia and not Claude

 

 

Observe the torn plastic where Monsieur Reynard has been up to his tricks.

[Scramble]

they're beautiful

[Budgies]

Aren't they coming along nicely?! They look so inquisitive!

[Snowy]

Gorgeous!

[Griffin]

Brilliant news about Claudia. They shoot up so quickly, my LS cockerel is 13 weeks old and almost the same size as my hybrids. I swear he puts his feet in a grow bag at night

Looking good Claudia

 

We had a visit from Monsieur Reynard this morning as well No lives lost thanfully but poor Gemma lost quite a few feathers through the eglu run mesh. Might be investing in a foxwatch

[Charlottechicken]

Wow, how they have grown

 

I was just thinking about your chicks Egluntine, as they are only a couple of days younger than mine, so I'm pleased to see your update. My boys are also sporting face furniture, whilst the two girls' comb and wattles are only just visible, so, like you I am pretty sure what's what now

 

They both look splendid
