Olly Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 So, I've just read this article about the Olympic Games opening ceremony ... there will be sheep, horses and CHICKENS! I wonder if they are holding auditions? I only live a few miles away from the Olympic Park! I might have to start writing their CVs up. Pippi, Daisybelle - vocal, and not likely to be overawed by large crowds (it would be amazing if something made her shut up!) Sadie, Speckledy - around five years old, a wise old bird who retired last year and enjoys gardening Lavender, Bluebelle, aged 2-3 - a calm personality and likely to take control of other hens What would be on your hens' CVs?

lillybettybabs Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Fran the evil - good body guard loves eating bugs and moss. Sam - Thinks outside the box, very clever, a good sprinter and loves people. Jo - very pretty ( good eye candy for the cockerels) Charlie - so laid back it's untrue! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
C&T Posted June 13, 2012 Share Posted June 13, 2012 F - the calm serene old lady - just hide the worms or her other side will come out.... R - Scatty, daft as a brush, could enter her for the highjump the way she reacts to the wind! I saw the article too, and did make me laugh. Still, I guess the grass in the middle of the track will be well manured... Assuming they keep them off the track! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leicester_H Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Am I the only one to think that this is not such a good idea ? Won't the chickens (and maybe other animals) be terrified of the big open space and the NOISE ? H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newcountrygirl Posted June 16, 2012 Share Posted June 16, 2012 Madge - A dead ringer for Mavis Riley (Coronation Street) Bit scatty and definately nosey. Matilda - just plain bolshy Gladys - Very keen to be in charge (as was her namesake Gladys Pugh from Hi-de-hi) Good team players and work well with children and animals - oops think the saying is - never work with children and animals but hey we're chickens!!!

dancing cloud Posted June 18, 2012 Share Posted June 18, 2012 Alice - the responsible decision-maker, happy to take charge of any situation Angel - the badly-named cheeky chook, who can effortlessly charm any crowd Hopefully the animals will be with familiar people and away from the crowd in secure pens.
