How does that happen then ?

On Saturday we went to choose 3 or 4 new chickens. We ended up with 2 bluebells (Belle and Pumpkin) 2 speckeldys (Minnie and Martha) and 2 black rocks! (Missus and Cleo) They are gorgeous tho However now it means 2 flocks, 2 houses and 1 garden split into 2 Also my OH has now gone into overdrive with plans for the new WIR

Dont know how on earth this happened

Dont ask me, I have 19 chooks in 7 different living arrangements currently

 

Congratulations on your new chickens, they sound lovely, pics?

[Ain't Nobody Here]

That was terribly careless of you .

 

But congratulations anyway .

[chick wiggle]

Careless maybe But I had a spare house ready for some exbats and as they were all rehomed before I could get any it was just sat there shouting at me 'fill me, fill me' and so I did

Will definately add pics soon as I can

[Chickvic]

Lucky you!

[Cooks]

congratulations! I echo Tasha... pictures???

[mostin]

That's chicken maths for you , sounds perfectly logical to me .

[dancing cloud]

Entirely with you all on the chicken maths

 

My originally-intended 4 ex-batts became 6 on collection, and have now become 9 (and my orginal one Puddy-cat has now become 3 and 3/4 ).

 

Obviously the amount of love we have to give expands to meet the amount needed - just have to hope the amount of income increases in the same way

[Egluntyne]

Funny how they just hurl themselves into your shopping basket isn't it? Congratulations.

[chick wiggle]

Sorry its been a few days, but Im afraid my new babies hold more of a lure than you lot No offence Anyway here are a few pics of the newbies

 

This is Belle and Pumpkin my blues

 

This is Minnie and Martha the speckledys and Missus and Cleo the black rocks

 

This is Lola and Fifi saying hello to their new neighbours

 

And Cleos feeling curious already

 

Im dreading the netting coming down and the fight for supremacy

[Scramble]

Gorgeous girls

 

My parental units have refrained from taking me anywhere were you can buy chickens because we just don't have much room, meanwhile I'm thinking of converting the shed...

[chick wiggle]

Sounds like a plan to me Scramble, My OH has already got the wood for my WIR Its amazing how a few more chickens can get them moving when they fear for their lawn

[Plum]

They're great congratulations. Can see why they slipped into your basket.

[Seagazer]

They are gorgeous, I'm not surprised you had to have them too.

[chick wiggle]

Thank you all, my guilt is slowly subsiding especially as the newbies already have let me have a stroke and a cuddle
