Gem_xxx Posted November 1, 2011 Share Posted November 1, 2011 Im so excited and haven't really met them yet. Our first brand new eglu classic arrived this morning and my lovely husband set it up and fetched two beautiful new hens- yet to be named. He put them to bed before I got home so have only had a little peek! will post pics soon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gem_xxx Posted November 2, 2011 Author Share Posted November 2, 2011 I finally went and had a look this morning before work- they are surprisingly friendly girls, I love the morning chattering when they came out... Nearly had a sickle just so I could sit and watch them but had to work. Looking forward to eggs now- know how you feel George and Jill 26! Such fascinating characters have a pic will upload as soon as I work out how. Thanks for all the lovely comments! Everyone is so nice on here!

chestnutmare Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Ooo they are lovely. As for names, you might think of something as their characters become clearer, or you could look at their colours and go from there, or a theme like a TV show/favourite book.

Chortle Chook Posted November 3, 2011 Share Posted November 3, 2011 Oh they are pretty. What a lovely rich red one of your girls is. Think you should use Plum's comment as their names 'Gorgeous and Scrumptious. ' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
