MedusA Posted December 1, 2011 Share Posted December 1, 2011 Here are my new Speckled Sussex banties that I bought at the National Poultry Show. They have been named by my friend's 6 year old son who thought they looked like they were sprinkled with stars. Twinkle is on the right and Sparkle on the left. DD added the Twilight Twins bit as she's a fan of the films. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MedusA Posted December 2, 2011 Author Share Posted December 2, 2011 Thank you all for your lovely comments. They are now in with the big girls and settling in quite nicely. I did section off part of the WIR for a while, but they kept escaping, so now they are fully mingling. They are still very flighty at the moment and difficult to catch for a cuddle, but I'm hoping that they will calm down soon. I haven't dared let them free range with the other girls yet, but at least they get the run to themselves for a couple of hours a day.

Chortle Chook Posted December 2, 2011 Share Posted December 2, 2011 Just seen this post. Golly are they beautiful!! I'd never seen chickens like that, not even in books. I think they really do look like they've been sprinkled with star dust Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
