Space Chick Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 (edited) This..... http://www.omlet.co.uk/shop/shop.php?cat=Chicken%20Keeping&sub=Health&product_id=4374&sort=popularity&start=10 but as I had also left Prudence in South Wales, had a "spare" Eglu and the encouragement and support of Redwing and Koojie..... I also bought...... Tegan - a Blue Buff Columbian Brahma Bantam and not being able to bring home a sole chicken, as that would not be fair, I bought her a friend....... Dorothea - A Gold Legbar (that Redwing was selling) Photos to follow later, OH is taking a half day "Paternity Leave", I had already booked the day off and as OH is my official chook photographer he will take some pics on his arrival home (nothing to do with the fact that I can't work the camera, and wouldn't have the first clue on how to upload them to the PC or resize them ) Edited March 1, 2010 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are the new ladies in your rabbit run or in the .....just wondering if I might catch them on the cam Hurry Home Mr Space Chick...WE NEED PHOTOS!!!!! And the nutri drops are great!

Space Chick Posted March 1, 2010 Author Share Posted March 1, 2010 You won't see them on the webcam, sorry Em Although, I am going to let them have a run in the walk in run later (as am not ready to let them free range, but it will give them a break from the Eglu run) when the rest are out free-ranging. Its also a better venue for the photos So tune in around 1-2ish and you may just see them (and Phil and I ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Love them! Really pretty chucks! Love that last photo too - action shot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted March 1, 2010 Author Share Posted March 1, 2010 Lovely How old is Tegan do you know? I don't know, Tasha thought she was around 18-20 weeks. She is holding her own against the older Dorothea though, so I am happy Love that last photo too - action shot Phil altered the shutter speed, and Sarah-Jane obliged by giving him a good shot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Tegan reminded me of Cookie's orpies. I was eyeing her up, but having the Eggy Babes recently and one of which is hogging the eglu, felt I couldn't add any more yet. Dorothea looks like she owns the place already! What a lovely looking girl she is too. Good one Redders! @ the mugging photo's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least Erin got to name her, and you know that her Auntie Koojie is welcome to visit her anytime Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cooks Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 yup looks like Teagan has the game feather colourist as my Orpies, which salon does she use Debs?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valkyrie Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Be very careful there Debs - not the first time she's bombed off to Wales! I think she'd love to give Teagan a big cuddle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
