Snow, sleep and Rhode Island girls

The snow is back!
Blizzards hit around midday and soon after our freezing walk William sneaked up to the bedroom for a sleep UNDER the duvet in an effort to keep warm!
I took my computer into Prestatyn for fixing.
then drove up to Denbigh to pick up my kind gift of 3 beautiful Rhode Island Red pullets.

All three are just at point of lay and chirped playfully away to Classic Fm as we drove home. I have set them up in an isolation run for a while, just in case they have picked up some bug or other, which I doubt. The trio are buxom healthy hens.
To continue my usual cinematic "chicken names theme they have been christened Laura (as in Linney), Audrey (as in Tatou) and Thelma (as in Ritter)


Two of the Rhodes minutes after we got home.

  1. Beautiful girls. Glad for you. I have a buff/red mix that cut her neck on wire when she was young. I didn't see it till it was half way healed. It healed fine, but with scar tissue, so she has a big lump on the side of her neck. So I named her Lumpy. Her comb is growing nicely, so I'm afraid she may be on her way to becoming a he. I guess time will tell.

  2. Love the pic of William under the duvet. That is SO Hootie. He goes for the most comfortable spot. Often as I'm sitting in my chair blogging he will jump up on (what is left of) my lap and sit there like king of the mountain!

  3. What pretty new additions John!!

    I have to say that I'm glad that the snow has crossed the Atlantic and is now visiting you even though I know you wished it wasn't!

    William looks so cozy and warm, and I hope in the cold you stay that way too!! :-) Take care!
