taz1967 Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Hi All Well our 4 new Chickens arrived along with their new home. A nice green Cube. Cube needs to have a panal or 2 replaced as it does not fit together properly and has bee built so we can use it for the time being. Our new Chickens are called, Maud, Molly, Paxo and Slasher. Can you guess what ones I named hehehehehe. WIll upload some pics soon and then you might understand why I called her Slasher..........

jellykelly Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Slasher - lol That is a brilliant name. I'm going to pinch that and store to memory for any future chooks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taz1967 Posted June 14, 2010 Author Share Posted June 14, 2010 Now do you see why I called her Slasher......... My own fault. Mr Omlet showed us how to clip the wings but when I done the next one, I hadn't got hold of her very well and this is the result.......... Ouch (and a few other expletives) Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chickenlady Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 It looks fab, ours comes next Thursday.....Unfortunately without Mr Omlet, so my husband will have to dust off his tool box (not something he is looking forward to). Bet it takes longer to put together than yours!!!!!!!!!!!! x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taz1967 Posted June 14, 2010 Author Share Posted June 14, 2010 Mr Omlet was here for 2 hours. But he did have a few probs with one of the side panels not fitting correctly and a replacement has been ordered. Apart from that its good. Our 4 little friends have been setting the pecking order, and lo and behold, Slasher is Queen at the moment. Im just hopeing that they will put themselves to bed tonight. Somehow I can't help thinking that Im going to have to go in and show them how to walk up ladders soon. Gary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Egluntyne Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 Ouch! Lovely set up and great names. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tutti Frutti Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 OUCH! Slasher sounds like she's going to be a right one Hope your tetanus is up-to-date! I heard just recently about being immunised for life if you've had a certain number of Tetanus vaccines - can't remember how many though (or if it's true!) so worth calling your surgery for their advice.

taz1967 Posted June 14, 2010 Author Share Posted June 14, 2010 (edited) Girls had to be put to bed just now. Dont think they appriciated it though, but after having 4 hours sleep in last 48hours I did lol. Shall see how they master it tomorrow night now, Slasher is lead hen at the mo and seems to take great delight in picking on both Gingernut rangers (Mabel and Maud, and not what I put in first post) (Wife most upset that i already got names wrong.......)

Burtie14 Posted June 14, 2010 Share Posted June 14, 2010 A chicken did that to you!?! Blimey, keep your eye on that one! Cube looks great, same colour as ours. Our Cube didn't take so long to put together, probably an hour at most, but we didn't have the run so I don't know how complicated that is. The girls look lovely! The black/ginger ones remind me of my Betty, and just thinking about her is getting my blood pressure up... blooming chicken. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taz1967 Posted June 15, 2010 Author Share Posted June 15, 2010 Think it looks worse than it is, It really is just a scratch. well maybe a little worse than just a scratch but its not really that bad, and it was entirly my fault for not picking her up properly. leasons learned me thinks..... Always wear a long sleaved top hehehehehe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
