Cooks Posted February 14, 2010 Share Posted February 14, 2010 awwwwwww they sound lovely, as the which one to name Valentine I am not sure.. Bluebelles are great, I waited ages for mine too, but finally have her and now she's a gobby little rat bag :lol: :lol: well when you disturb her laying her egg she is..

Seagazer Posted February 15, 2010 Share Posted February 15, 2010 Congratulations can't wait to see the photos. We were thinking of taking a ride up there in springtime to have a 'look'. Do you have to order or can you just turn up and buy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarbaraJ Posted February 15, 2010 Author Share Posted February 15, 2010 Well first the pic nearly got them all looking at me meet ? Val and ? now what happened lol i went out to let them out this morning all ok then went out until 2pm with my minded kids. Went to check on them and give them some greens. the new chickens were in the left hand side (with a trellis barrier) old part of the run and the old girls in the big right hand side. Well that was where they were supposed to be somehow i had Donald and an old girl in the left and 3 old girls and 3 new in the big side they either squeezed through the trellis or somehow pushed past it!! rung hubby and asked him to pick up some more trellis Surprisingly all i saw were 2 little white feathers andthe food knocked over but all calm but i still put the new girls back in their side!!
