bouldercroft Posted April 17, 2011 Share Posted April 17, 2011 Introducing Mavis, RIta and Lola. The introductions to Korma and Josie didn't go well so they are separated and I'm now calling that thin strip of grass the Gaza Strip I'm stunned at how vicious K&J were - why can't we all just get along and be nice to each other? Rita (Salmon Faverole) has such mellow temperament (even when I washed her feathered feet) and is so fluffy and adorable. My hubby calls her the bearded lady Lola (Silver Laced Polish) is hilarious to watch and is also very chill but I'm sure that's because she can't see anything to be afraid of it Mavis (Ameraucana) seems more skittish than the others maybe because she was attacked more by Korma and Josie. I think these three eggs are Lola (top) and Rita (bottom two) - can someone confirm??
