    Ideas on this girl?

    Just wanted to share a pic of this lovely girl. We got her a couple of months ago from a lady who was going travelling.

    Help with my new cluckers please

    hi all, I got these girls yesterday and I’m told they are purebreds but the elderly lady couldn’t remember the breeds. Her sister used to breed them and bring them to the farm once they had grown. They are currently in quarantine and being treated for scaly leg mite. TIA
