Our new girls

Recommended Posts

Hi we have two new girls yet to be named but we are favouring Storm for the black maran type (as we arrived home in a terrible hailstorm) and Sandy ... here is Phoebe our original checking them out. So far the two new ones have had a go at each other and Phoebe has pecked the black one through the trellis. Hmm early days.

This is them just arrived, I think the other one is a crested of some sort! Similar colours to a quail.

Thank you. It isn't going too well so far - already on Plan B and had to clear the shed out and set up the new girls in there. Storm is a champion jumper and got over a 5ft trellis only to be attacked full on by Phoebe. I have been sitting in the shed with them this morning and they seem quite calm, Sandy is very quiet, traumatised I think. I've also sat in the garden and Phoebe came and had a preen beside me - she doesn't like to get any closer! Am off to Wilkinsons as soon as it opens to get some trellis for the top of the fence as I'm thinking when the new girls do get to FR Storm could get on top of the eglu and over next doors. Can only get better ...
