Two skylines and a rhode star - they are sooooo beautiful I'll upload some photos this evening. The skylines are ginger/grey mottled and fingers crossed will lay blue eggs (80% chance but their ear lobes look promising). The rhode star is the typical little red hen but has a couple of black tail feathers as well and will lay up to 320 eggs/year. Not entirely sure what colour - supermarket colour I would imagine - I'll have to wait a few weeks to find out
The new girls are settling in well, the old girls have had a bit of a peck but nothing nasty.
Oh and as this is a money forum... they cost £51.50Mortgage at highest (April 2008): ~£195,000
