Hi guys...been lurking for months & finally joined. I started off with ex battery girls a year ago & when the fox got our broody on day 20 I sourced some chicks. My 2 boys ages 8 & 5 were devasated as was I. I ended up getting 3 gold Brahmas, 2 cuckoo cochins & 3 cuckoo marans. 3 months later we realize that 7 out of 8 are roos
. I'm in love with the docility of the brahma & cochin but the marans have got to go...they're obsessed with asserting themselves. We live out in countryside in Irish midlands with 2 bearded collies & a rescue cob pony. The chicks spend an inordinate amount of time being snuggled by my kids on the sofa
