heth1986 Posted February 9, 2012 Share Posted February 9, 2012 (edited) Firstly, thankyou to all of you who replied to my previous post and helped me make my decisions on which breed of chicken to go for. I did, eventually, rehome my 2 silkies. They are going to live at a local school and help hatch some fertilised eggs (all they ever wanted to do!) and teach the children all about it I, on the other hand, have just picked up 2 beautiful black stars from pages poultry, i'd forgotten how stunning their feathers are with a beetle-green sheen all over and golden flecks around their necks. 'Broke-Neck' (according to my OH this is apparently a hilarious take on the movie 'broke back mountain', I don't find it particularly amusing but seeing as he is getting involved enough to have and name his own chicken which will NOT have a broke-neck...) and 'Wendy' are settling in as I speak and I will post you all some pictures ASAP when they are feeling a little less camera shy... perhaps some meal worms will do the trick! *runs off to garden to sit and watch the girls for a little while longer* Thanks again for all your help!
