Cate in NZ Posted September 28, 2006 Share Posted September 28, 2006 I've never been immaculate since I had my babies (well nigh 15 years ago now ). I have every sympathy with Lavinia She still looks great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted September 29, 2006 Author Share Posted September 29, 2006 I noticed this morning that Lavinia picks the choiciest morsels out of the food dish and puts them on the grass for the chicks - what a good mum Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chocchick Posted September 30, 2006 Share Posted September 30, 2006 the new pictures are beautiful. I like the chicks on top of Lavinia with their eyes almost closed, but they're all good photos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted October 4, 2006 Author Share Posted October 4, 2006 Here are some more photos: Two of the chickies eating - you can see that they are sprouting wing and tail feathers Herb - he now has a real chicken shape rather than just a ball of fluff Chickies in the dust tray - you can see how Herbert is much bigger than 'Bit and Bob' They are gorgeous and i could spend all day looking at them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aunty e Posted October 5, 2006 Share Posted October 5, 2006 They grow up sooo quickly,in about 2 weeks they will go threw a ugly stage when they look like scraggly crows and look funny as the are half fluffy and half feather and there legs go lanky. Chick is like that (still haven't named him/her). I'll have to try and get some photos at the weekend, but at three and half weeks old Chick looks utterly ridiculous. Fluff and feathers sprouting everywhere and these ENORMOUS wings. I wish Chick was still as cute as yours! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted October 5, 2006 Author Share Posted October 5, 2006 I wanted to freeze-frame mine about 4 days ago auntye. It's like children isn't it? You think they're perfect at a certain age and want to freeze them there, but then another lovely stage comes along... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
