Default New Girls and latest news on Mr Darcy!!

A much happier day today! went out to get two new girls as poor scarlet was very mournful this morning, here they are!


Biscuit! a bit of buff orp in there somewhere I think!!
and then gypsy

she's got lovely eye lined eyes but don't know what breeds went into her, any ideas?!!
everyone seems ok so far!
Had news of Mr Darcy tonight as his new owner turned up with his stud guinea pig (Miguel)he'd taken a shine to my daughters GP and wanted to put them together and then keep the babies himself, pearl looked a bit sirprised but hey, you've got to know how to sieze the day! Anyway he told me that Mr D tries to sleep on his doorstep at night and he has to pick him up every night and put him in the henhouse he is apparently 'scared' of the hens who boss him about, the man thinks he's lovely, said he was a real old softy ???????? can anyone understand this? but the only thing I can say is that he's picked him up right from the start and stroked him so maybe that's all he needed...rather him than me though!!

So glad you're having a better day! Your new girls look lovely! They look as though they're laying already?

sorry the pics won't seem to appear, have to find another site for them?
What I want to know is about Mr Darcy, I wasn't kidding about his changed personality with his new owners, what could explain it?

I think you have to shrink the photos to a suitable size - at least that's the only way I can get them on here.
I wonder if Mr Darcy is seeing the new owner as the dominant cockerel? So he's now in a lower position in the pecking order?

Now you've got us all wondering what he looks like!

I can't see the photos but as I can't post them either I can't complain can I.

i cant see them either, but I've found the easiest way to show your pictures is to upload them to you User CP and they give you the link to post into your post.
