Lewis Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 Hilary and the nearly 2 week old chicks had a visit to the WIR yesterday... They were scratching around in the aubiose, then running to her when she found something for them Cilla + the ducks had to come and have a nose at what was going on too!

Lewis Posted June 1, 2010 Author Share Posted June 1, 2010 Lovely ducks as well - are they Campbells? They were bought (surprise birthday present) as Aylesburys, but don't look big enough to me, so could be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
*mummy_hen* Posted June 1, 2010 Share Posted June 1, 2010 I agree they do look quite small for aylesbury's as my friend had some and they were huge with much fuller chests but they could well be!! They are gorgeous nonetheless and what a fantastic birthday present!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
