Awww, how wonderful! Have you been pondering names?

Awww, how wonderful! Have you been pondering names?

Yes but it's ongoing.

I think the Dorking is called Lorna. Dad's cousin Lorna was a remarkable and unique woman who was always kind and generous towards us.

It's very special to have the three little ones home safe after all the waiting and hoping

 

[MaryJanet]

Oh yes. I remember now. Very clever. So today you get both pullets and eggs.
Even more exciting!
Where will you quarantine the babies?

But I can only get eggs if the neighbours are in when I pop by. I'll try a few times and hopefully I'll catch them at some point

 

[MaryJanet]

Ok. The Sussex is called Edie.

Both Mum and Dad had an aunt called Edie. I met Dad's Aunty Edie but not Mum's, although I read many of her letters.

Look how adorable!

 

[MaryJanet]

Hmm I'll have to set up a dust bath. Maybe a shallow box with clean clay kitty litter.

 

[BY Bob]

I might put one of Blossom's plug in beds on top of the box in case a little warmth is called for.

How old are they? They look to be about 6 weeks I think.
