any names yet???

[veggiechicken]

They're amazing with their beehive hairdos Congrats

[Bren In Pots]

They are cute

[Hayley]

Not too sure on names yet. There's a black one which the other half has named Babbs. (From the caroon film chicken run) the white/cream and grey with pale black spots need names.

Reckon they are kind of sweet, I almost missed the black one! Babbs! The others will have to have that go well with Babbs!

Well it's day 2 and so far things are going ok. I put them straight in the coop yesterday as I didn't get them home until the afternoon and left them to settle. I opened the door and went to work this morning and all 3 were happily roaming around the run and scoffing when I returned. They have made some poops in the coop but there not half as messy as a expected and I've scooped them up and binned them ( after tutting at myself for not putting them in the compost bin). They all seem happy enough in their new home and don't seem phased by me or the dogs (dogs from a distance). I've just been out expecting to have to usher them to bed but no they've gone in all on their own! I have such clever little chickens (especially for ones so such little sculls).

Hehe- they're introducing you gently. Just you wait!

I slipped over in pooy mud today after cleaning them out and almost stepping on one. Only managed about three clean words
