Post by: jinty1911 on April 01, 2011, 22:32
 WOOOWOOO Hubby has agreed to take a wee diversion on his way home and pick up 2 new chooks for me  :lol: Gold laced Oprington bantie and Lavender Pekin.  I asked if he minded if I slipped another one in and he said "no".   :lol:  :lol: So hopefully, will get a black or black mottled pekin.  Just waiting for breeder to mail me back. Gonna have to get busy getting their temp accommodation ready.  :D  :D  :D

Aye well, I should have know things were working out too good to be true.  Hubbby coming home tomorrow instead of Tuesday and I can't get a hold of the chicken people.  So it looks like I have spent all day replacing a rabbit hutch roof so that it opens up and putting up a tempory fence for nothing. Boo hoo   :(  :(

I was going to ask about that!  Your hubby's been away for a while hasn't he?  I hope you remember to give him a quick 'peck' on the cheek before you start fussing over the new chickens!  Otherwise he might start to feel just a little bit neglected!  :tongue2:  Hubbies are funny like that.  ::)
