UK pigeon owners

Maybe you can do this and make up.

He already has the fire going,,, All you need to provide is the marshmallows.


I understand that fox are a common predator in the UK. Fox can dig under fences. So can you. I think I may need to stop,,,,, before I get my bacon in trouble with suggestions.

The pictures are there but under a SPOILER, marked Fowl. I did not want to get scolded for posting pictures of chickens on a PIGEON THREAD.
My fear..

But the closest to me Is @biophiliac ,,, and I don't think she wants to hurt me
So I overcame my fears and posting the ones I got this past afternoon. From a BYC member .

and this one

They are both PIGEON SIZE THOUGH. Seramas

Had 2 before. Those are no longer. My Avatar shows one. Gorbie.
I still don't have names for these. I just might let my Grandchildren name them.

How totally cute! I still can't open the other image... try again? I think I speak for more than myself in wanting to see the other lil bitty chicken too. WV has seramas... Are they from hers?

They are from a member that lives not far from me in Illinois. I hang out on the Illinois State thread.
I just went back and clicked on that spoiler, Fowl and pix pops up for me.

I did not get this chicken, but the other 2. Her son wanted to keep this one
Of course I wanted him to have it also

Post as many pics of chickens as you like! Most of us have chickens and ducks also! I don't tend to hang out on chicken threads really so I always post here! It's a risky business letting young children especially grandkids name chickens, you will probably end up with some really random names or the more recent kids cartoon character names! They are sweet looking things though. When do you get them?

Well. with the naming,,,, I just let them have the joy of doing it. I will still have my names for them regardless
They don't come when I call them by, name, but they sure come when I come with treats..

Chickens are such traitors! We think they love us but really they love ANYONE with treats! I look forward to hearing the names!

good idea on the marshmallows!

I love the seramas! they are beautiful! So small and cute. I won't scold you for posting a chicken in here though...

Well,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, the grandchildren did not make it over this weekend, so I was not able to hold off tooooooooo long without giving them names. Named the Penciled Gray one DYNA, and the White and Tan one SAVANNAH. These are Biker Chick names.

Oh,,,,, and they can fly. Way better than my OEGH. The gray one flew into a tree 25 feet up. The circle shows where she is.

I like the names. Good choice! How you gonna get Dyna out the tree? Are you sure it's a chicken and not a pigeon?!!

It may be a pidgi-chicken cross..
Took the hose and shot a squirt up there. She flew horizontally about 70 feet away from the tree. She is definitely a record holder for flight from my flock.
BTW,,, the integration of newcomers into existing flock going smooooooothly.

I'm now conflicted. I love my racers and won't give them up for anything, but since I've got the fantails and have the archangels on order I keep thinking about the world of fancy pigeons and it seems also to be alot of fun. I spoke to a guy from the NPA which is the national pigeon association and he was great fun too talk too! I'm still having a few problems with local clubs for racing and I'm not sure I can be bothered with chasing around all the time. And even with my loft extension, I still won't have enough birds to last a season with inevitable losses. I know it's a personal choice but I was wondering what you guys may think.
