Thanks for looking

 

There Lovely Tortmad, can you really work out whos'e who

 

They look great I bet they're a hand full, The 4 ex-bats I had were. straight to you when you tired to get into them and tried to follow you out the gate but they were a joy to watch and had their own personalaties.

 

Oh yes with out a doubt I think they all look completely different

Oh they definately are. They follow me around like a dog (I am constantly tripping over them), they greet me when I come home from work and help me do my gardening (I plant it they dig it up) lol:lol:

Ex batts are so friendly and so rewarding

 

Now that's how I like to see chucks, well done Tort.:thumb:

 

I gave up planting in their area as they'd eat just about everything I planted, :lollol: including my first atempt at onions. They were fantastic at weeding though, if they didn't eat them they scratched them out and I just had to go round collecting them :thumb: I just can't wait to get the new girls out there but they're only 9 weeks old and not ready for the big wide world yet.

 

Ah thats all part of the fun, it entertains all 7 of us for hours lol:lol:

 

Lovely pics, TortMad. I just noticed that not only do they have different feather "dresses", but also different combs too.

They sound like great helpers in the garden, sweetpea, with their weeding abilities :D

 

Chickens are great for weeding and turning over the soil. Someone I know brought a few of her girls to her allotment, fenced them in and let them get on with things for an afternoon. They did a great job scratching over old soil and weeding, plus they had great fun!

However they will trash a garden in a matter of hours. Its not so much the scratching, as the trampling and pecking at anything they fancy.

Wouldn't be without our girls

 

Thank you all for your kind comments about my girls. I think each one is totally different from each other not only in appearence but in character as well.

I wouldn't be without them either :wuvu:
