Hello everyone :)
Sorry I have been a bit quiet of late, we have been spending our time sorting out the garden ready winter and also winterizing the chicken coop.
We added 2 of this years hatch-lings to the flock a couple of days ago so I wanted to share some photo's with you all.
They are 5 months old Buff Orpington crosses. Above is Max our first Rooster and below is his sister Gracie
Gracie isn't laying yet....I keep checking for eggs every morning....but no egg yet :)
Our original 3 girls aren't too happy with the "interlopers" there has been quite a bit of squabbling, but we are hopeful that they will all settle down again soon.....of course Kate wanted her photo taking too, so here she is...
Milly is here shouting at Emma because she has gone and hid behind the potting table (you can just see her tail popped up at the back of the photo) I don't know if she's hiding from the camera or the new chickens lol.
Right I best go back outdoors, I am supposed to be helping hubby turn the stinky compost heap...yukk!
Take care everyone :)
*hugs* Heather x

How exciting, your first rooster! Is he crowing yet? And there's always a bit of squabbling while they sort out their pecking order, hopefully it will settle down soon :) Buff Orpingtons are so pretty, I love their golden honey colouring :D
