New hens not going into Eglu Go Up

[Mollie333]

I thought i'd take some pictures and put them on here, because i haven't in a while.

 

This is Ruby, one of my broody hens.

 

This is Bella, another one of my broody hens. She's that colour, honestly, it's not dirt.

 

This is Onyx, my gorgeous little black Pekin.

 

This is one of my oldest chicks, a Pekin x Wyandotte, boy.

 

A cute little Colombian(i think?!) Pekin bantam.. A boy.

 

Effy and her chicks going to bed.

 

The cockerel i've got really attached too.. he was a she until about a week ago.

Mollie, what gorgeous hens'n'chicks. They are beautiful. Well done you for taking such good care of them. Alli

What kind of chicken is Ruby She's beautiful what colour do you call that

[Mollie333]

She's a Pekin bantam. Not sure really... Maybe somewhere in between Birchen and Partridge? Maybe someone can help me out here.

 

Thanks.

GORGEOUS! How easy is it to look after the PJ legs of Pekins?

[Mollie333]

Pretty easy! They could do with a covered run though to stop them from getting balls of mud stuck on there toes. Not too bad in spring/summer. I have quite a few (see in my signature) i have a look at them all every week to make sure no big mud balls.

They are all so cute, I love pekins!!! Defo my fav chickens.

 

Ruby looks like my partridge but not quite so maybe you're right about the cross. What a shame about the boys very cute .

[Mollie333]

Thanks, Pekins are my fave too.

What lovely pics, i love ruby! I adore my big girls but i think if i had brought my pekins first i would have a massive collection of them by now. Maybe when i get my smallholding???..

They are all so beautiful - such gorgeous colours. That little boy chick just looks such a little bundle of fluffy mischief - will you keep him?

[Plum]

They're looking good Mollie, broodyness must enhance their appeal

[Mollie333]

I wont be keeping him, he's going to live with a friend, gutted but i'm expecting chocolate Pekins to keep so can't keep him.

[Mollie333]

Well the boy chicks went today. They'll enjoy their new home.
