The birds look like Welsummers
Beautiful big birds. (Not jungle fowl) I’ll get pictures tomorrow.

Nice! And lovely dark eggs - does he have a Roo? Of just hens?

Interesting, they say our pets start to look like us.

A woodsman logger friend who has had cows and chickens says that dairy cows these days often don’t ever go outside, they live in a stall. That's got to be a factor in disease. He was horrified to learn that.

Any guess as to what breed they are? Very beautiful birds.

I have no idea how old they are. But poor things are scared to death, thrown into new surroundings without a clue as to why their hooman discarded them.

You can decline - I did!

Some allow a decline & some don't let you view unless you accept. I figure it's their loss if they force an accept to view. Nice sites will allow viewing after a decline... some don't.

Here goes. As told by the resident feline at Chartwell (Churchills place).

He had two miniature red poodles named Rufus and Rufus II.

Very interesting reading.

He was a wonderful dog lover... he loved cats also... had horses... & black swans... & pond fish... & aquarium fish too. I always respected him... how can I not admire an animal lover
