angeluk69 Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 I was very naughty and got 2 more chickens yesterday... aa bluebelle called Agnes and a ranger called Elsie As I've only had my other 4 girls for 3 weeks, maybe I shouldnt have been so eager to get 2 more, but hey ho. Got them home popped them in, they had a few fisticuffs, Agnes decided she could fly and went in the field which resulted in a benny hill moment, but today they seemed to be fine. The weather here like just about everywhere else has been awful, so i left them all in the house and run to get to know each other, and all is going well. Agnes is definitely the quieter one, and Elsie has got a bit more oomph to her, but they are such little sweethearts, they are all tucked up in the house on the bars quite happily and snug I havent had a chance to take any pics of them as its been so miserable here but hopefully I shall get some in the next day or so Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Luvachicken Posted June 3, 2012 Share Posted June 3, 2012 I think you have Morehens disease already. It is very contagious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angeluk69 Posted June 3, 2012 Author Share Posted June 3, 2012 Haha, yep definitely Morehens disease, but I'm at my limit now at 6, which probably doesn't sound a lot compared to some peoples 'flocks' but its the most I can realistically hold within the space I have at the moment. Trying to keep them all dry and warm has been my main challenge today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
