Unsecure chicken perches

[katieD]

hi all

 

been to a feeding farm today with my little girl and they had some gorgeous chooks!

 

they were white with black spots about the same size as a ranger- any ideas on the breed/colour combination- i have took the phone number off the board there of the breeder incase i manage to persuade OH to let me have a couple more!

 

any help appreciated!

Appenzeller?

 

 

Or maybe a Hamburg

[katieD]

it was chunkier than that and didnt have the cool hairdo! and bigger black spots!

 

 

maybe it was some odd hybrid!

Not very good with breeds but could it have been a sussex?

Lovely hens, but can be quite flighty and a bit mad. Very pretty though

I suggested those in my first post above

 

They are flighty birds, that doesnt mean they cant be tamed becase they can but def one to clip the wings of!
