Valkyrie Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Lewis sounds like Erin - but at least I can read to my able bodiedness rather than a glaze form across my eyes and cotton wool in my ears when she's yappety yapping. Oh Lewis - you'll just have to get one of all varieties. Naughty Fred Yummmm Debs. I can hear Cookies tummy rumbling from here - oh that's mine. Better cook some dinner.

Lewis Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Father cooked today - quorn sausages, with roasties and sweet potato, carrot and squash mash - a premade packet jobbie though 1 (or 2 ) of each sounds good - they could be infertile or cockerels, so will get too many eggs then chucks we want. Can always find a home for hens if we get too many 12 set last time - 1 hen left at the end of it (Purkinje)! Any breeds I've left out? Me is thinking LF - they're all littlies.

Lewis Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Ta JJ Pekin :think: ... maaaaaaaaybe Lewis has just fallen in love with a Silver Partridge Pekin: and have realised we've never had a blue chicken (frizzle/poland mebe?) But I know when I've found the breeds and colours I want, I won't find any of those eggs. Chocolate somethings crossed my mind, but a bit expensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted March 3, 2010 Share Posted March 3, 2010 Thanks Tasha - would fulfil the blue requirement! I know what a partridge dotte is (I actually put them on the list with your barred ), so are they just a blue base?
