laurmurf Posted January 7, 2010 Author Share Posted January 7, 2010 don't you think hellymisscloud looks right at home in the WIR? no problems with introductions either.... George put her in her place. Bit of a squeeze in the eglu tho. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of a squeeze in the eglu tho. Bet she claimed the nestbox though. Did you have to put different feeders in for her. She would be ok with the superglug.

They're kind of cute in a weird kinda way Not keen on them myself, but if you want me to hatch some out under one of my girls in the spring, then I'm happy to do so Tom. You're not too far from us to collect/see them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mostin Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Beautiful pics Laurie, shaun is still in bed so I have snook onto omlet for a while , hope I don't get a headache . Is the close up of Dola? she is such a character, Evey is still my favourite I'm afraid, even with her gooey cyst, or maybe because of it, being the gross person that I am .

laurmurf Posted January 9, 2010 Author Share Posted January 9, 2010 sneaky forum behaviour! it's a close up of Evey with the new camera. It zooooooms right into the picture, love it! the cyst removal wasn't as 'satisfying' as i'd hoped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mostin Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Evey normally looks so much paler , still as pretty though, in her strange way , glad her cyst is getting better even if it wasn't as fully satisfying as you hoped Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

laurmurf Posted January 9, 2010 Author Share Posted January 9, 2010 we've just had Evey in to bathe the wound, it has scabbed over which isn't ideal but it's clean. She fell asleep on Ellie's knee while she was being bathed.... come on now, everybody, say awwww! (altho Ellie did keep shrinking away from her rather wickely long beak whenever Evey showed too much interest in her face! ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yorkshire Pudding Posted January 9, 2010 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Eeek.... I wouldn't pick a fight with any of them. Or try to pick their scabs! But I prefer them to Naked Necks *runs off to hide from the wrath of Laurie* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
