jkl Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 (edited) hi guys, As she whom rules has gone to deepest darkest Gloucester to get her hair done, I was left to my own devices........ ......and I accidently got these little darlings... Biggles and Ginge needless to say Mo and Dora have greeted them by ignoring them...... and here is Lucy - my very nosey dog - checking the new arrivals out.... Any ideas on how to break the news to she whom rules? Cheers and have a quality weekend. Edited August 29, 2009 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Just use the old favourite . "What, these old things? I've had them for ages " Lovely photos - very pretty girls and I love your dog . (Could you reduce the size of them a wee bit though? They tend to push the forum sideways!)

xScrunchee Posted August 29, 2009 Share Posted August 29, 2009 Has she noticed yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkl Posted August 29, 2009 Author Share Posted August 29, 2009 I was totally pathetic. After much praising of the new hair, hoovering upstairs and downstairs and cleaning of the kitchen, I invited she whom rules outside to have a cuppa. At which point she noticed (who said blondes can't count to 4? )... Happy to report that she whom rules is happy with them which saved me from trying to convince her that it was Dora running around so quickly, it looked like 3 ginger chooks! The introductions are going well. A bit of pecking from Mo and Dora but only seemingly to get Biggles and Ginge out of the way. Hoping that when they pile into the Eglu, they'll share happily. I'm thinking that I'll have to be up proper early though to let them out at dawn.... oh joy! Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jkl Posted August 29, 2009 Author Share Posted August 29, 2009 Conner - our other dog - stalking Biggles and Ginge Mo - unimpressed with the new arrivals - sneaks in to check the post.... The chooks are all in their eglu asleep - no squabbles either..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
