brambles Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 *sigh* can't find her. Will just have to plan ahead again with wernlas (ahem, drive past with a cat box in the boot ...) Are your wernlas girls laying yet? If so, when did they get going? Mine are 17 weeks old this weekend and the cochin is getting a pink face and tiny face furniture. The legbar is still very pale and tiny, bless her. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karen & co. Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 *sigh* can't find her. Will just have to plan ahead again with wernlas (ahem, drive past with a cat box in the boot ...) . I couldn't find her either One of my sons is playing rugby in Congleton soon, might need to take a box with me just in case Karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brambles Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 Thanks clucking, I've not got spare accomodation for newbies, so I'm going to have to be so sensible and wait How is your new baybee? Poor little lady. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brambles Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 What accomodation have you got your various girls in at the moment? What happened with the babies? Are they all in together yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluckingmad Posted October 17, 2009 Author Share Posted October 17, 2009 Hi Bramble, The little ones are currently in a rabbit rfun wihtin the WIR, sleeping in a large cat carrier - up till this evening they were in the WIR with thec arrier, separated from the older girls with weld mesh - poor Nutmeg has jumped up on the carrier and decided to investigate the big girls run, then found she couldn't get back over and so couldn't get away from them The three new girls from Congleton are currently in a large indoor rabit hutch in our front room (!), we're off to pick up an eglu for them tomorrow.... Have a spare two tier rabbit hutch you're welcome to have if you thik you might want to get some newbies? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brambles Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 cor you're so naughty!!!! Am resisting like mad here, as six really is plenty for my cube, but the thought of a blue cochin .... (and lice!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluckingmad Posted October 17, 2009 Author Share Posted October 17, 2009 granted, lice are veeeeeery nasty (itches like mad), but easy to get rid of Did I mention that Flossie (the remaining blue cochin) was a really lovely girl?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brambles Posted October 17, 2009 Share Posted October 17, 2009 STOPPIT! You are so naughty. ~*mumbling* how big was she? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluckingmad Posted October 17, 2009 Author Share Posted October 17, 2009 *impish grim* she was quite a big girl, almost full grown if not fully grown already... Flo, the cochin we brought home, is HUUUUAGE!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluckingmad Posted October 17, 2009 Author Share Posted October 17, 2009 And now, for the photos!! Flo wasn't impressed at the camera as she was trying to go to sleep - better pics to follow Etty the salmon faverolle (and what a massive girl she is too) little Suzie the sultan And my lovely Flo Think Suzie got water in her ears during her bath (she did insist on dunking her head under ), she keeps shaking her head every so often.... should I be worried?

brambles Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Soooo sweet! more pix please! My Rasputia is only 17 weeks today and is heuge, especially as Tiggy is still tidgy. Rasputia is getting red face furniture, but Tiggy is still very pale. Are all three laying? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 Oooo she has silkies? You know how much I want 2 more silkies. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluckingmad Posted October 18, 2009 Author Share Posted October 18, 2009 she did when I was there None of the three girls have laid yet, but apparently they are in lay - think the stress of moving home and meeting her girls may have put a stop to any eggs for a day or two Nutmeg the injured baby is still with us this morning and looks much better - I can't tell you what a relief it was when OH popped his head round our bedroom door first thing to say she was perky and wandering about our front room!

brambles Posted October 18, 2009 Share Posted October 18, 2009 phew glad to hear the baybee is ok. What a shock though. My big girls would really do some damage to tiggy if they could get to her. She'll have to be huge before we do introductions. How much was she asking for the girls? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluckingmad Posted October 18, 2009 Author Share Posted October 18, 2009 just asking for offers - a farmer had offered £40 for all of them She's very open to reasonable offers though, she just wants them to go to good homes where they'll be loved Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
