KateH Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 After much umming and ahhing about what to get next to keep my Pekin and Silkie company I finally decided on a couple of Poland bantams. Did a 3 hour round trip to get them today. They're lovely and so funny; I had to put them to bed tonight as one had roosted on top of the chicken house and the other was asleep on top of their drinker! Such a funny sight, I wish I'd photographed it. Anyway, I did get some pics earlier today - sorry they're not the best: This one has been named Dinosaur by my little boy..... This one is called BeeBee I still don't know how they manage to see out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kit06 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I can really understand why people say you can't mix them with 'normal' hens, they seem a bit helpless. I went out this morning and they were still in bed where I'd put them so I lifted them out and put them in front of the feeder. They started pecking the feeder but mostly hitting the plastic rather than getting any pellets (it's a gravity feeder). I hope they get the hang of it soon, settle in a bit and get food and water!
