Just had a chat with the breeder who is a lovely lady.  She will be back at the market next month as is happy to exchange my girls for 8 week chicks.  So I can sell, keep or exchange - I'll decide next month.

In the meantime these two are happily eating my lawn.

Will the breeder be able to guarantee hens at 8 weeks old?  They will be expensive 8 week old chicks if you are just exchanging them.  The breeder I have bought bantams from only charges £15 each for 16 week olds.

I hope that your girls settle in with you and are soon eating out of your hands and sitting on your lap.

Hello
You are right - an exchange wouldn't be a good idea.
Anything could happen - they may settle really well so we'll live happily ever after.

I just got used to being able to bend down and pick my hen up - can't see that happening here for a while!

Slowly, slowly catchy monkey chicken!
