Plum Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 They are lovely. What does Dorothea think of Teagan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted March 1, 2010 Author Share Posted March 1, 2010 (edited) They are doing well, there has been a bit of chasing in the run, but its 6 of one, half a dozen of the other, so they seem on an even keel I thought Dorothea was going to be the boss, but Tegan has been chasing her too. I think give them a day or two and they will be the best of friends Edited to say I spelt my own girls name wrong Edited March 1, 2010 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tutti Frutti Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Wow oh wow!!!!!! I'm so All of your girl are beautiful... (but I loooove Dorothea's legs and tail!) Thank you for showing us your brilliant photos! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadietoo Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Great pics Debs, and gorgeous new girls...I especially love Dorothea's fine head gear..makes her look very regal..just needs a nice handbag and fur (obviously synthetic) stole to go with it!!

Plum Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 I was going to apologize for spelling the brahma's name wrong but you spelt it different from your signature so I won't bother. So where does the name come from? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted March 1, 2010 Author Share Posted March 1, 2010 I was going to apologize for spelling the brahma's name wrong but you spelt it different from your signature so I won't bother. So where does the name come from? I am such an idiot Spelling never was my strong point As with all of my girls names, they are named after Dr Who Assistants I have a list of names that are "still available" and so I asked Tasha to choose the name for the Gold Legbar and Erin (Koojies daughter) chose the name for the Brahma Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plum Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Of course I can't spell either as no doubt you will have noticed and tutted over many times Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valkyrie Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 You should have seen Erin huffing and puffing to log into my side of the computer - so desperate was she to name the birdie. She also had a jolly good moan at me as if it was my fault the computer is so slow it goes backwards. Then she looked and said I like Tegan - flash of fingers and the deed was done.

batcatz Posted March 1, 2010 Share Posted March 1, 2010 Ahh, lovely chooks! I especially like Tegan and her blue feathers, but am also loving the comb on Dorothea! I checked out your website and found the info about your hens very interesting. Great idea to record egg sizes and amount laid from POL or arrival date! I write mine on a calender if I remember. Then I can spot if one stops laying and check if there is any reason e.g worming, mites etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Poached Egg Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 New girlies look gorgeous - as do all of yours! I revisited your website last week to check egg colour before going for our Coucou/Speckledy Will wave as we go past on our next trip to Pembroke.

Valkyrie Posted March 2, 2010 Share Posted March 2, 2010 I would like to meet Sir Minky - pin up to so many girls over here. It must be his accent or the lure of a big red ball in the sky that probably helps. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
