The Dogmother Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 Well, I can't find Lewis' thread, to add them to, but here are the photos of my three from last year's hatch. The barred wyandotte banty is Phil's girl and he's named her Bridget as she looks like a Bridget Riley painting. (sorry about the photo quality but they were taken on my phone) Bridget (Phil’s girl and named after Bridget Riley), she’s a barred wyandotte bantam, and Prudence, a black German Langshans Here’s Patience getting in on the shot (below left) it’s not very sunny and she’s camera shy so you can’t see that she’s a beautiful gold laced wyandotte bantam. They like playing down on the muddy bit by the woodpile as there are loads of bugs to eat there. Prudence and Bridget – I love the look on Bridget’s face in this one… she looks to be asking a question, probably ‘where’s the food?’. You can't tell from these photos, but Prudence's black plumage has a stunning green and purple sheen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jools Posted February 21, 2011 Share Posted February 21, 2011 I love the look of Prudence, there's something special about black like you say, that lovely beetle sheen. My SS x Cuckoo Marans all turned out black and it's lovely to see them together. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lewis Posted February 22, 2011 Share Posted February 22, 2011 Looking good Yep, Bridget is Eliza's sister. Funnily enough, those 2 and one that Tasha hatched at the same time all started laying within days of each other! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted February 22, 2011 Author Share Posted February 22, 2011 Bridget is stunning but makes my eyes go funny to look at her. She's quite shy though. Prudence is my favourite, she has very soft plumage and is incredibly friendly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
