tom123 Posted May 20, 2009 Share Posted May 20, 2009 Well me and my mum missed floyd so much that we thought we would get another cockerel. We chose another Partridge Pekin but he is a bit darker than floyd. He is very stunning and has a lovely pathetic crow! He is 1 1/2 years old and was hatched by a friend of a friend. Well heres Jim... And Rosie!... Thanks Tom Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tom123 Posted May 20, 2009 Author Share Posted May 20, 2009 Yep I had Rosie & Jim (2 girls!) But they were destined for my grandparents and to be honest I didn't mean to have the 2 names again! My mum chose Rosie and my grandad died a week ago so I named Jim after my grandad. Thanks Jessie! Here's a few more!... Floyd RIP Maisy RIP & Daisy Thanks Tom P.S. Did anyone see me in Country Smallholding??? Young Reader??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
