Get a phone call this morning from a lady. She says 'Your Pekins are now old enough to be sexed, would you like to come and pick them up today' and then I say 'Excuse me? What pekins?' Then she says 'The pekins you reserved a couple of months ago and you said you would collect them around now.' And then I remembered I had spoke to a friend of my nans and she had told me she had lots of pekin eggs in the incubator. I had said could I have a few girls when they are ready however we had all forgotten about it since the fox attack as we have had a lot going on. We were looking for some more pekins just not yet but o well!

 

We are going over there this afternoon to pick up 2 (or three ) little girls aged 8-10 weeks. She has loads of different colours including cuckoo, buff, lemon splash? (made up I think!) and more!

 

Wish me luck

Pictures will be here later

Oooh, that was a bit worrying! 'Doing a Mostin' has taken on a whole new meaning recently!!! (see the self sufficiency thread )

Wow, what a lovely surprise - my local supplier has had some lemon cuckoo pekins, absolutely gorgeous!

[Lewis]

Thats what I thought

She will be pleased shes been used as a verb twice!

[Budgies]

Ooh more piccies later then, can't wait!!

 

Think I might pop with all the cuteness on this forum at the moment!!

[Griffin]

Yes I thought of the other meaning too I thought "omg poor Tom, how upsetting" and then I read the thread

 

Righty ho, jolly good, am very glad it's the more happier version of 'doing a Mostin'

I had exactly the same thought!

[Karen & co.]

Oooh cute, will you pop some in a jiffy bag and send them to me please

I clicked with some trepidation as ''doing a mostin' can mean one of 2 things!

 

How lovely though....very nearly chickens of fate.

[Yorkshire Pudding]

Thank goodness it was that kind of a 'Mostin'! a Mostin not a Mostin.

 

She must be the only Omleteer to have given her name to two such different verbs!

 

How lovely, can't wait to see the pictures.

[poachedegg]

Mostin you're doubly infamous now!!

[tom123]

Fudge the Buff pekin 8 weeks old

[OwenLdn]

Tom- ive done it again!

 

I have just named my Millefleur Pekin Fleur and just saw you have exactly the same! I got mine at the weekend and are probably the same ages as yours.

 

I got a Millefleur, Mottled and Blue Pekin 9theres a photo on a thread somewhere i posted). Cant wait to see how your Silver Partirdge turns out- beautiful!

 

Are you leaving your new Pekins outside over night?

[ClaireG]

They look lovely Tom

[Ygerna]

They are lovely Tom. I'd love a couple of bantams, but, we are now at capacity. (no, really we are )

 

 

Scared to ask, but, what did Mostin do in the other forum

[Plum]

You're best not to ask unless you have a good stomach.

 

Tom they are fabulous. Lucky you Obviously 'doing a Mostins' is contagious beware omleteers.

[Budgies]

They're very pretty Tom, and sweet names too!!

[Egluntyne]

Scared to ask, but, what did Mostin do in the other forum

 

Best go and have a look.

Where is the thread? I can't see anything dodgy looking, but, I am tired so its probably embaressingly obvious

No worries here. I was brought up in the countryside, with a family that followed tradtional country pursuits such a shooting and ferreting. But, as you say, others may not be so de-sensitised. Thank you for the link. It all now makese sense.

[Lewis]

It all now makese sense.

:lol:

[Yolky]

Ohhhhhhhhh they are sooo pretty. I would love some banteenies... you aren't too far from me are you *looks to see if husband is watching* does she have any more

[Scramble]

AW, adorable

They are the same age as when I got my pekins

 

Word of warning though, you do not show me pictures of pekins without expecting them to mysteriously disappear

[mostin]

 

 

OMG Tom, you had me really worried there for a moment , but instead you have ended up with some really cute little girls . They are gorgeous.

 

I can't believe "doing a mostin" has 2 meanings , but maybe people will believe me now, that orders can be accidentally not cancelled, or forgotten , these things do really happen .

 

I would have seen this thread earlier, but I've been a bit busy all day with my two new girls who accidentally came home with me yesterday from a chicken auction , I just don't know how these things happen .
