Ok so I picked my girls up today ... Came back with one I wasnt intending to get and minus one i was intending to get.

I arrived at the farm this afternoon , It took some choosing , I knew I was their for an Amber, Nera and Sussex so was trying to pick one of each... However the Amber one I did want had been pecked badly around the ear so the keeper left it to me whether I wanted to take it or not, I ended up after much debate deciding not too and went for an Oxford Blue instead so now i have:

1X OXFORD BLUE NAMED BLUEBELL
1X NERA NAMED NAMED DAISY
1X LIGHT SUSSEX NAMED GIZMO

They seem to be settling in well, Bluebell the most so far, I havent been in their face but did spend a couple of hours in the garden this afternoon with hubby and we took a few piccies.

Get them up later on.
 
How exciting! It was a beautiful, almost springlike day today in Essex. Hope it was the same for u and your new girls. You will have many wonderful hours getting to know them as individuals and laughing at their various antics and funny ways. :)
 
Fun times ahead!!
Look forward to hearing how you and your girls get on over the coming weeks!
CtheB was spot on with her comment, just wait, they will give you a few chuckles funny little characters that they are!
