scarlettohara Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 (edited) and her Lady in Waiting Peggy (too much Phillipa Gregory ) Just bought 2 home in the end as want them to eventually go in with the big girls in cube/wir Mrs Summers who is almost completely bald and Peggy who just has no feathers on her wings (and no tail) Mrs Summers will need her bum washing tomorrow, they were really good about having some lice powder on - just stood on the table and let me get on with it - maybe they liked it They are pecking around and I have seen them drink their lifeguard water, I am thrilled with them and will take better pics tomorrow when the rain stops Edited September 27, 2010 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falkor Posted September 27, 2010 Share Posted September 27, 2010 Lovely ladies Sara!! I may have even have been the one to carry them out of the farm as the Herts/Essex team collected from the same farm as us Enjoy!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scarlettohara Posted September 27, 2010 Author Share Posted September 27, 2010 They are fine this am - I had an egg on the roosting bars and Mrs Summers has dug a huge hole. She is a bit of a bully though and Peggy has been sprayed with anti-peck Em - I thought some of them were quite well feathered yesterday, I asked for bald ones though You must have been cold and wet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had a few fully feathered ones, mostly they were patchy. I ended up bringing a completely oven ready lady home with me Sara - If it were me I would take out the roosting bars for a few weeks until their legs are a little stronger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mostin Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Hi there, so happy to hear about all of you getting your new ex-batt girls. Sorry I'm late with my congrats, but as some of you know I lost my puss cat, and just haven't quite felt like omletting for a week or so . Trying to get back to normal now though, and so lovely to see those pictures, hope you'll give us an update pic soon Scarlett as they begin to fatten and feather up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
