chocchick Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Bella is beautiful would love to see Fizz as well when she ventures out. Maybe they're top chooks just because they are a bit bigger than the others Florrie looks just like my Katy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea Posted November 25, 2006 Share Posted November 25, 2006 Dunno whether its just me, but Bella looks like she's wearing a really smart leopard print style posh coat and she has a lovely hairdoo of long flowing golden ginger hair.

Snowy Posted November 25, 2006 Author Share Posted November 25, 2006 Dunno whether its just me, but Bella looks like she's wearing a really smart leopard print style posh coat and she has a lovely hairdoo of long flowing golden ginger hair. She is a rather trendy little thing isn't she? Went out half an hour ago and Florrie was still pottering about, so left them a bit longer. Just been out now and they are all tucked up in bed. Had a peep through the egg port and got a few little chortles and chirrups - no sign of world war 3 at all! Bless! Phew - first day over! Brilliant!

One Man Banned Posted November 26, 2006 Share Posted November 26, 2006 Congrats on your new arrivals Snowy - and Bella is GORGEOUS! how are they this morning? A xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted November 26, 2006 Author Share Posted November 26, 2006 Well I did the dash this morning - very trendy in PJs, dressing down anorak and clogs at 7am!! They were all waiting to be let out - obviously not early enough for them! I decided to divide the run for a while to give the tweenies chance to get out of the eglu without being attacked, and the fimbles very obligingly waited in their half whilst I set it up! At least Fizz came out for a while: Fizz - she does have eyes somewhere! Wracked my brains thinking of a way to divide the run, then had a brainwave: Worked very well until Pom decided that the tweenies treats looked better than hers, so she just hopped through! Florrie tried but chickened out half way through, then was stuck because the canes lifted her feathers, so she had to be rescued Next time I left smaller gaps between the canes and that worked a treat. Head Chicken Keeper has spent all day feeding them treats and topping up their water every time they have a mouthful Neighbours have been to visit and spent some time discussing how well an eglu would look in their gardens!! Brilliant day (again!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
