Chucky Mama Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Well as you may know I ended up spending £35 on a hybrid chicken at the weekend Here she is - Patricia, and her less pricey friends Lulu and Ann (don't know whether that is Ann with an 'e' or without at the moment) Patricia on the kitchen windowsill (a bit of wing clipping may be in order ) Lulu The Terrible Trio including Ann(with Scally herding in the background ) not forgetting Trudie (gone from being bottom chook to 2nd in command...for now) and Monica (enjoying top chook status) They are quite a confident bunch much more so than the older girls where when they were new. I think that it is because they were from a large grassy paddock rather than small pens. Fingers crossed for eggs soon (perhaps a non brown one ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chucky Mama Posted March 7, 2011 Author Share Posted March 7, 2011 What pretty girls you have. Love Monica, what is she? She is a Bluebelle. Both her and Trudie (the Amber Star) are real characters. Monica is a really greedy and I am sure could be in the Guinness Book Of Records for speed eating mealworm See has turned into the chicken police with the newbies.

Griffin Posted March 7, 2011 Share Posted March 7, 2011 Do you know what mix she is? She's an Ebay egg. Dad was a Cream Legbar, mum was anyone of a mixed flock of various hybrids. I had six hatch, four were boys, Princess Margarets sister is Anne of Cleeves, they both lay green eggs although Annes are darker, and all six look totally different.
