Hello,
I thought It was about time I introduced myself and let everyone know what we are breeding and keeping,

I am Rob Dodge, and I live with my Partner Sarah and our children, Matthew, Johanna and Ebony, we have other pets which are..
Scrappy who is a 20 month old Patterdale Terrier, Ziggy our 7 year old Green Iguana, Ice our 11 month old Albino Ringneck Parrot.

Our chicken friends are..
Mocha and Sparkle - 2 Hybrid Layers,
Millie - Golden Partridge Wyandotte Hen,
Frizzle - Charcoal Frizzle Pekin Bantam,
Violet - Lavender Straight Feather Pekin Bantam,
Barry - White Pekin Bantam Roo,
GaGa - Mille Fleur x White Pekin Bantam Roo (He was bought as a Hen - hence the name ! lol )
Daisy - White Mille Fleur Roo - which again was sold to us as a Hen but he isn't he has also suffered from a sort of stroke so is living in the bath at the moment but I think we may have to allow him to go to chicken heaven as he is struggling more every day

That is my lot - Phew !
I am having to buy an additional incubator tomorrow (Rcom - 20) as I have another 30+ Eggs waiting to be incubated.

I am also off to purchase some " Showgirl " Hatching Eggs and Chicks next weekend which I should have available to sell on later in the year, feel free to contact me in early June for more information.

Have a fantastic Sunday everyone,

P.s I could do with some advice on how to go about showing my Blue Cochins if any one could give me some pointers that would be fantastic !
