Congratulations, they are gorgeous! Are you going to have some fresh eggs from them ?
Ah, today I picked some up. Not sure if they are responsible, but I think they are. Having moved they didn't lay any eggs for 3 days, so I guess they felt the urge ...
Mr Cock is going to be called Hendrik (I guess you'd say Henry). The hens are still to be named. So suggestions are welcome.
I'm thinking about Jeanne and Petronella (female versions of Pieter [De Coninck] and Jan [Breydel], both from Bruges and reknown for the spurs battle in 1302 )

Fine looking birds! I'd love to have chickens, but there would be problems with both the neighbors and the wild predators.
TY. I don't really have a lot of neighbors and the ones I do have keep chickens and roosters themselves :-) I do seem to have a RAT problem now... Still working out on how to solve it since my home-made trap didn't do the trick...
