Love the pics clare. Dolly looks like she's got a crash helmet on

[Guest]

Such a shame that your lady is so far away from me Clare - I would so love to have batams and such a variety.

 

Can't wait to hear how they all get on together. Sounds like it will go smoothly as you are integrating more than one bird.

 

I am soooo envious - in a nice way - they look adorable

 

Best wishes

[The Dogmother]

Clare They look lovely

 

I'm sure you will be telling us soon that you are getting cows and pigs to add the the farm Oh and a goat

 

Don't tempt me lovie - if i had the space and the time I would

 

I think that Phil is worried in case he is getting shoved further down the line

[Mel (& Paul)]

Lovely birds for a lovely bird Clare

I'll second that.

 

Cor you're being nice grd

[The Dogmother]

Yeah, makes a change, doesn't it?

[chocchick]

Glad bunnies are not homeless because of chickens!

[The Dogmother]

They're staying in their sheltered hutch by the back door while it is cold.

Fatastic news; Dolly has laid our first blue egg! I went back home at lunchtime to hear her sounding off in the garden - I assumed that she was bullying the cats again, but she had laid a beautiful blue egg I will post photos as soon as I can download them from the camera.

Excellent news Calre - she didn't waste any time did she!

Congratulations

[Mrs Frugal]

Crikey! That girl got her socks on, didn't she!! Congratties, Clare!!

[The Dogmother]

Pearl said that she was supposed to be laying when I got her, but I expected to wait at least a week for her to settle down. Rosie wants to blow it to save the shell to paint for easter.

Well done Dolly..................

[The Dogmother]

Phil made me laugh today; he says that he feels such a prat going out in the garden and saying 'Hello Dolly' I laughed 'til I cried, and now I can't get that darned song out of my head.

[Mel (& Paul)]

sticks fingers in ears lalalalalallalalaallla

[The Dogmother]

That's ok Hon; you're welcome

[Mel (& Paul)]

 

Managed to get the song out of my head. It really helps if you sing:

Postman Pat, Postman Pat, Postman Pat and his black and white cat.....

[The Dogmother]

I think you are to blame Mel.

[Mel (& Paul)]
