Beautiful hens, Hansmum, but do think about more already... Sue

i have thunk sue and am getting some ex-bats end feb/early march which was always what i intended but thought i should get a bit of experience with some healthy normal chickens first, and as i gor the hen house for christmas i couldnt leave it empty could i?

They are lovely but why sage and onion, surely not for edible reasons

no their not for eating but DD thought they would be good names, next 2 are going to be rosemary & thyme so keeping the the theme going, dont know what the 2 after are going to be called though

What a gorgeous couple of gals they are. I love the blue one Sage, she's fab. But now I'm eyeing up my shoddy looking gaggle......Hmmmmm, I wonder if they'd notice if they woke up blue tomorrow.....I'm sure I've got some vegetable dye somewhere (cupboard doors opening). Just kidding - they are lovely though. Thermal socks are a good investment too.

Parsley, Lavender, Basil (but that'd have to be a "he" wouldn't it), Coriander, Fennel

Gorgeous chooks. I can see why you love them.

[Hashette]

Me too - they look so clean as well, they must be much more house trained than my lot

I would love chickens but my dog would probably just spend the whole time trying to eat them.

That's another good reason for electric poultry fencing! My dog used to catch Pheasants in his younger days, and bring me the bunch of tail-feathers. I always had visions of a Pheasant with a bare bum hiding in the hedge .
