Egluntyne Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Have just picked up 4 hens from Little Morton Farm this morning. 2 Cream Legbars, a White Star and a Light Sussex Hybrid. They are stunning hens and I was more than impressed with the set up. The place was spotless and the chap who helped me choose was friendly and knowledgeable. Now to choose names. Pics to follow.

Olly Posted September 17, 2011 Share Posted September 17, 2011 Ooh, new hens! *said in the voice formerly reserved for new shoes* I find hens much more enticing than shoes, these days - and they always fit ...

Egluntyne Posted September 18, 2011 Author Share Posted September 18, 2011 Have come over all A Midsummer Night's Dream and gone for the names Peaseblossom (White Star) Cobweb (Light Sussex Hybrid) Mustardseed and Quince, (Cream Legbars). I know, I know, the 4th fairy was called Moth, but I didn't care for that, and the two Cream Legbars have very light mustard/quince colours in their feathers, so the names suit them very well.
