libby22 Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 Is Moko the only one that can talk? I note from your signature that you have a buff Orpington. I have just put a post on about these as I am desperate to find chickens for the future that aren't as aggressive as mine. So far I have pekins on the list but am now looking at Orpingtons as I have heard they are very placid. How do you find your girl with the others? Still laughing about Moko shouting chicken!!

Mokos talks the most non stop some of the others say a few words. My buff Bertha is lovely she is lovely a teddy bear and loves a cuddle. But does broody a couple of tea a year. I think you live local if you ever want to come and see her just me know Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
libby22 Posted November 9, 2013 Share Posted November 9, 2013 That's really kind of you - I might take you up on that. I love my girls to bits, but they won't have any newbies in their pens they just pin them to the floor, stripping their feathers and I am hopeless - just can't take it. I would dearly love some that don't try to kill each other Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
