She joined my little back garden flock with a speckldey called Shadow who sadly went back to the farm a few weeks later due to being constantly broody . So mixed in on her own with no problem .
She is such a lovely girl and has laid me an egg a day since March last year only missing 5 days .
The only problem is if it is one. After a year she still won't let me any where near her .. She hides under a bush or scuttles away like a bat out of hell if I get any where near. I have never stroked her or picked her up. They all get on really well together and have a lovely big coup with 2 nest boxes but she goes every day into my spare home for new girls which is a small plastic dog kennel and lays her egg. No noise , no " I'm going to lay my egg" just quietly goes and lays it always in the morning .
I love her to bits and she like all my girls is so beautiful .
Our Bluebelle was really nervous when we first got her about 3 years ago but after a while she started to come round and she used to let us pick her up and give her a bum bath as she always had a dirty bum
