Sure come on down Debs, I've told the boys they're not allowed anymore until after their tea, so there's plenty here. Still got to do the dishes though, the downside to cooking Might leave them for hubby to do, when he does the dishes after tea - my back's aching.

[Space Chick]

Bless you, sit down and rest for a bit

 

We are still eating cakes from the Hen Party on Saturday

 

Also, I couldn't bear to leave my new babies

[Lewis]

Bath and blowdry done

She's standing on my floor just having a good nosey!

 

And she's doing high pitched purring No idea what it means?? + she's never done it before, but quite cute

[Valkyrie]

Ahhhh widdle Nugget. At least she isn't squealing like Kitty!

 

Yummmmmm fancy those cakes.

 

Dug over the runner bean bed which is going to be the parsnip bed this year with a bit of help from my friends. Another small bed and one of the large beds that we had spuds in last year - and I found a potato in really good condition and well shaped. Yayyyyy treasure me harties! So I feel a little bit stiff now. We used to have a lot of worms - and I did see lots of worms while digging, but I think the girls have had meat spaghetti and now we don't have lots of worms.

Debs your little newbies are gorgeous Lucky you How quick is your OH getting them on your web site already very impressed

 

I am still quite jealous, I wish i could have been there but it did clash with London fashion weekend

 

Well, after worrying and expecting torrential downpours and wind we were very pleasantly surprised by the weather. Only needed an umbrella for 10mins going from from car to tube to somerset house and the rest of the day was, if not sunny, then absolutely fine. Had a fantastic time and the catwalk show was amazing although those models really need a few pies and the walks were straight off Monty Pytons ministry of funny walks - wierd!

Then we went to covent garden and onto camden market. Fantastic retail therapy, lots of shopping done and a brilliant day just me and ED

[Space Chick]

Glad you had a great day Sandie.

 

I think I wouldn't have been able to resist the temptation to shout "Eat some food!" to the skinny models

[chick wiggle]

I felt like doing that, honestly, they look like freaks, they're even skinnier in real life than you see on the telly. If some poor girl saw them and tried to emulate i dread to think what could happen. Its all very well if your naturally thin, but some of these girls look so gaunt and tired it surely cant be natural and thats with a bucket load of make up on.

And, how do the designers think their clothes look good on these girls when surely its real women with real curves who are doing the buying?

[Valkyrie]

Well I'm glad you had a good day out Chickle. Sooooo what did you buy and how many shoes?

[chick wiggle]

How long you got Koojie

Well, no chickens unfortunately But did get....

Gorgeous burgandy coloured boots

floaty summer top

another top

and yes another top

lovely lola rose necklace

hair clip

and lots of food!

It was a busy day

[Valkyrie]

Now that's what I call a successful shop. I'm so fussy - and I have a particular thing I'm looking for and end up really bad tempered because they never have what I want - and that was in the thin days - it's worse now. Mum was dreading going shopping for a wedding dress - luckily for her the first shop was ideal - and even though we looked for something else the first one had that special whoosh (no hoops just lots of layers). She was mightily relieved.

Ho hum dinner dings the bell. Pity the rice is done but the chilli has a few minutes to go.

[Space Chick]

Sounds marvellous Sandie

 

Donna is still manic after the newbies arrival, she's picking on everyone

 

So everyone has been sprayed with anti peck spray (including her as Barbara retaliated) I am hoping to avoid the bumper bit if possible

 

The cut that Dorothea took to her comb through the run has been gently painted with purple spray, she was a very good girl

[Lewis]

Hope they all calm down tomorrow Debs

 

Nat walked into my room to ask me something earlier, walked out, then walked back in ...

"Why is there a chicken roaming around your room?"

"She's sitting ... and you're just jealous"

[Space Chick]

Thats funny Lewis

 

It should calm down tomorrow, it was the same when Nyssa and Susan arrived I think we went through 3 days of craziness, reducing each day and then it settled down Fingers crossed it will be the same again this time

 

Hopefully, with corn training, I can feel happy to let Dorothea and Tegan out to free range, rather than moving them to the WIR, that should make Donna feel less threatened

 

Hopefully by Saturday I can let them free range, and then I will let a few well behaved girls free range with them too on Sunday That worked a treat with my last 2 sets of intros

[Lewis]

Fingers crossed!

 

Just thinking about the 1:1 intro with Nugget, have read the thread that says to take it slowly as normal, but don't know wether it'd work by putting them both in the and seeing how they get on?

[Space Chick]

I suppose it depends how territorial Nugget is going to be

 

On the other hand she will probably be glad of a friend

 

Are you able to separate them for a few days?

[Lewis]

I think she was always at the bottom of the pecking order, I can separate her yep, but she probably will appreciate having a friend

 

Just asked Tasha and she said try them together and they can always be separated if there are any problems

[Space Chick]

Sounds a good plan

[Cooks]

well my girls were out in the garden from 10 til 5.30 ish today... had a whale of a time they did the holes in the grass are coming on a treat :lol:

[Space Chick]

Mine have been in and out today, however, they often choose the run over being out, particularly if I am in it as they are worried they might miss something

[Cooks]

well they are being wormed from tomorrow so only FR in the afternoon to allow them to fill up on food. No treats either, Em said 'No treats' in a really strict voice..

[Space Chick]

I still give limited treats

 

Don't tell Em

[Redwing]

 

The cut that Dorothea took to her comb through the run has been gently painted with purple spray, she was a very good girl

 

24 hours in and you have broken my chook!?

[chick wiggle]

 

Aww naughty space chickie your in trouble now

 

[Space Chick]

 

The cut that Dorothea took to her comb through the run has been gently painted with purple spray, she was a very good girl

 

24 hours in and you have broken my chook!?

 

Don't Tasha, I said the exact same thing to Cooks earlier. I feel terrible

 

On the plus side, she has been great for a cuddle and has eaten some grapes off me, so I think she is settling in OK (other than the cut of course )

[Cooks]

your too hard on yourself Debs, thats what chooks do.. your looking after them fine..
