I like shavers. People can get a bit precious about heritage breeds but shavers are a great utility bird. But I do like having my pen full of colours and shapes too!
Hi Ms Lottie Yes I think I may have been a bit like that in the past, overlooking the positive points of commercial breeds. However I'm still going to keep my Araucana hens for a bit of interest, the blue/green eggs are a novelty!
nice new chookies!
ReplyDeleteLoved the teeny one in the top row from the plucked ones!! heehee
They are also very placid which makes a nice change from our other chickens. The chook run is much quieter now!
