Title: some piccys of the girls finally
Post by: nicky d on May 18, 2010, 16:16
I got my girlies a few weeks ago, The amber star and speckledy came from a different breeder, they were not in great health atall so i didnt put any piccys up, so instead of sending them back as my hubby went and got them for me i decided to keep them and give them a better life.  So here they are, lots of piccys    nickyx

My barnie Nessa, she came from a good friend of mine

My amber star, Stacey, i think she is beautiful, shes made a great improvement

And then lastly heres my speckledy Pamela, she was in the worst health but shes doing great now thanks to some good old antibiotics and worming and fresh air.

arh thanks,  im really pleased with them, having a few blips with the speckledy and her egg laying, shes rather eratic, double yokers, and then nothing for a couple of days and then back to normal eggs, but im hoping she will settle, shes an older bird so prehaps she is slowing down.  nickyx

They are lovely Nicky.  And they have got sweet faces.

Isn't it funny how they all have different faces and expressions, and they do generally reflect their nature?  My Tilly (the Hun), can give you a look that would strip paint.

LOL yes i agree with you there definately,  Stacey reminds me of a prima ballerina, shes a big girl but is very ladylike and i reckon has a real girlie face, if she could carry a handbag it would definately be Louis Vuitton, wearing Christian Louboutin heels. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:  nickyx
