Have you thought about some pure breeds?

 

I love brahmas & cochins.

 

 

Just had a look... not really a fan of these! I don't like their legs! They look like they are wearing those hairy moon boots that were popular in the late eighties!

 

I like the ones that have legs like the ones that you see frozen in Chinese supermarkets.

 

:lol:

Remeber that eggs can take on the taste of the things that they have eaten so too much garlic may not be a good idea especially if you want to use them in cakes! :lol:

 

Orpingtons are big fluffy hens but have non feathered legs. Pure breeds tend to stop laying over winter.

 

I believe White Stars are smaller and can be flighty. My Amber is cream/white and I would call her bomb proof. Gets under my feet mind! :roll::D

That reminds me i must pop over to Jantys to see her lovely WIR and take a handbag bid enough to smuggle Kylie, Delia and popcorn out! :wink:

 

You wouldn't need a large bag for Popcorn.

Yeah! I didn't think about cakes! I'm not bothered about the garlicy taste generally. But who wants a garlic flavoured Victoria Sponge?!

 

Just googled some breeds! I defo don't want fluffy ones! My hens are gonna be sleek! 8)

I had a purple eglu, it is a gorgeous colour. I would have had a purple cube but didn't want to repeat myself and now i love my orange cube. Oh, and i haven't named it :oops:

 

If it's orange you could call it Dale... after Dale Winton!

We have four chickens in our (cube blue) . We were lucky in getting our cube without ordering, it was a return (couldn't find any thing wrong with it). Blue fits in nicely in a garden, and it doesn't let the light in.

 

If you want a cube quickly ask if they have a cancelled order or a return, otherwise you'll have to wait a few weeks.
