Here are some more pics, along with personalites!
Belle is broody, bossy and top chook of the flock, she was a problem hen who didn't lay very well and could be quite aggressive until something must have snapped last time she went broody because she is now a great layer and quite a sweet hen.
Jewel is sweet, lovable and enjoys attention, she is wary of being held but will squat for me and is very respectful, she is at the bottom of the pecking order and is the only hen that doesn't boss by pullets around [I suspect they have a higher ranking then her!] she is darling.
Pip is cute, quirky and a terrible layer, she is okay but seems to have a problem with Jewel. she likes to mount her, the way a rooster would mount a hen. [poor Jewel] she is very dominant, but is second on the pecking order.
This is Tinky. she is very flighty so it is hard to get good pictures of her. she is not at all tame and is mean to the pullets, bullying them whenever they are in close proximity. she is fine with them on the roosts at night though. she is a good layer but a terrible Houdini, always exploring the front yard and visiting the neighbors.
Mini is sweet and calm, but not particullaryly tame, she also sounds like a cross between a goose and a turkey! she is quite lovable but still to young to lay, due to start in mid September with my other 3 pullets.
Leaf is top dog among the pullets, and there may be some fighting between her and Belle for top spot when she is Full size, because she is very large and dominant. she can be quite sweet, but also wary of humans.
Sherbet is cute and funny, she is also dominant like Leaf, but not as big. She can be quite friendly and doesn't mind sitting on your lap. She love attention, and is patient but demanding, I have to say she is probably my favourite.
