eggregiousness Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 On a week Saturday I will be picking up a Houdan and a Cream Legbar to go with my 2 big white Cochins . I swore I wouldn't do this but somehow it seems inevitable ....What if I lost one - then the other would be on her own....totally wrong! I have had to invest in an Eglu because there would not be roon for 4 in the Chicube . At least that means introductions can be as slow as they like. Very excited! Now I need new names. Daughter number 2 suggested Goujon for the Houdan which I am quite taken with - but so far not much of an idea for the Cream Legbar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
annettec Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 We are collecting our cream Legbar on Friday She has deformed feet but couldn't resist and therefore my son has chosen a pretty name "Fleur" Can't wait 2 more sleeps as i am frequently reminded How about "Nugget " would go well with Goujon !!!!

eggregiousness Posted April 28, 2010 Author Share Posted April 28, 2010 I like "Nugget"! Do I have some disease or a compulsion? The reason I ask is that I am already planning - chicken number 5 is to be a Barnevelder! However - I really don't have garden enough for 5 so she will have to wait. Do tell us all about your Cream Legbar, Fleur, on Friday! I have 10 more sleeps to go - and a very long drive.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 Nice to see you again Eggregaciousness as you went rather quiet after your husbands return Glad to hear you are getting more girls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eggregiousness Posted April 28, 2010 Author Share Posted April 28, 2010 Thanks Space Chick! He still grumbles and has made me put up a fence so that they don't have access to the whole garden (I didn't argue) but he has been spotted throwing them grapes and chuckling at the sight of them runnin g. He also eats the eggs quite happily! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted April 28, 2010 Share Posted April 28, 2010 They all fall for their charms Even though my OH wanted the girls more than me (if I am honest ), the sight of a strong man cuddling his favourite girl, or throwing them worms or weeds is lovely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
