It's that time of year and I must be broody so I was chatting as one does( ) with a hobbyist chicken keeper who happens to have some millefleur bantams which she might just pass on to the right person

 

I am very tempted but these little hens have spent all their lives in the lap of luxury and have never been outside in our cold, nasty Scottish climate. She thinks they will be OK but I could do with your opinion too

 

As you know Dunblane winters can be wet and windy. The pekins cope well but I don't know much about millefleurs. What do you think

[jam]

I think pretty hardy, its blowing up a gale over here and my millefleur is still running around like a loon

millefleur is a colour not a breed - do you know what breed they are as the hardiness will vary from breed to breed
