Very nice! Thanks for entering K Spot!

You're welcome.

You can see the Orpington breeding in my BA - she's very rounded haha

Haha yes, I noticed and wondered how a BA got so round!

Hi! I have some pics that I've amassed over the years of my chickens, they are all pretty old ones but I can never seem to find time to go outside and take any more

Name: Feathers ("Feh")
Breed: Red star (but she didn't look like any of the other red stars we've had. Feh was a very odd specimen... )
Age: I can't remember, but definitely older than 7 months.






Name: Cherry ("Chirpy") is centre stage
Breed: Red star (our normal sort)
Age: About 2 years.

 

[Nutcase]

Cool, thanks for entering! Actually Cherry was one of the names I picked for my future flock. It doesn't say on your profile, but I'm assuming you're in Australia....

 

[Delta2 23]

I am indeed; I haven't updated anything for such a long time on my profiles on various websites.
Cherry's a nice name. Our Cherry is getting old, these pictures were taken a long time ago and I can't see old Chirpy flying off anything with such a degree of mobility anymore.

 

[Nutcase]

Okay, just checking.
I've got Red Stars too. Are yours still laying?

 

[Delta2 23]

Surprisingly yes. Our first two stopped laying after only two years, but LT and Chirpy are still going strong. Now we've also got two new younger ones, who I don't have any decent pictures of, so we're getting lots of eggs.
