orpy bantam pairsorpy bantam pairsI'm posting this again as I've decided to do it differently now. I've had offers to take
all 6 of my babies that either haven't materialized or sounded a bit suspicious. I have lots of interest in Goldy & brown as a breeding pair which I will have to accept if nothing else turns up, (I feel a bit sad that they'll probably be put in a small breeding pen) and I've decided I must part with the lovely Houdini & make her a pair with one of her boys. All these chooks have grown up free ranging. They are 12 1/2 weeks old So this is what we have - Goldy & Brown are a gold lace pair, half siblings, this colouring seems very much in demand. She is quite shy, he likes the ladies mucho and crows like a dove. Curly is friends with Goldy & Brown & it would be nice if he could go with them but that's probably too much to hope for. He's a gorgeous boy, friendly, soft feathers, likes to sleep outdoors in the run, has a cute crow - not too shrill. Patrick, Berty (frizzle) and their girlfriend Houdini are all great friends & go everywhere together. Sweet natured and tame, it would be lovely to see them all homed together but I will let Houdini go in a pair with either of the boys to a nice home. Patrick carries the frizzle gene, he is green/black & red & growing more pretty by the day, he rarely ever crows (so far) Patrick and Houdini and my gorgeous Berty, lovely natured but still a little timid, however he loves a cuddle before bedtime. He crows like Curly, cute but not shrill "He who is cruel to animals becomes hard also in his dealings with men. We can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals."

clogged up!! these are not dutch bantams you know! yes Berty is my fav too, so I'll take as long as it takes to find him a nice home. A breeder keeps messaging me about them all, I'm sure she only wants the g/l girls & would probably dispose of the boys. I'm not tough enough for this business, I'll never do it again! my incy & electric hen are going to be sold too. "He who is cruel to animals becomes hard also in his dealings with men.

a 30ft run, 6 girlfriends & a doting owner so I'm sure he'll be ok. Just Goldy & Brown to home now "He who is cruel to animals becomes hard also in his dealings with men. We can judge the heart of a man by his treatment of animals."
--Immanuel Kant Re: orpy bantam pairsGreat news
Re: orpy bantam pairsLast pair, Goldy & Brown, have found a nice home. Infact I could have homed them
5 times over I've had such a run of enquiries! So other folk with friendly cockerels needing new homes don't give up hope! it just takes time, some nice photos & descriptions, & be willing to deliver them( infact I preferred to) Preloved, pets4homes & of course DTL have been the most helpful in finding nice homes for my boys.
