You might have seen on the FB page that I am going to be giving up on hen keeping I don't really want to go into the (many) reasons for it except that I have been thinking about it for some months now. I have 9 hens, mostly hybrids with the exception of 2 Fenton Roses and 1 Auracana who lay blue egg...

This item has now been sold to Garym,


Thank you to everyone for their interest and Gary, you can wave tata to red mite with a blast of the hose or pressure sprayer regularly.

Hi Gary,

Have sent you a PM

Hi Redd It's very similar, it's this one m hens only sleep in it (and lay in the nest box) and all tend to huddle up, no I'd say it easily sleeps 6. Yes those ring things come off so you can remove the roof, nest box etc. it has lttle wedge things you gently hammer in - which it has been put togethe...

Thank you Richard, Maggie and Perchy.

its very rewarding making these things isn't it.

I have a notice on the intranet at work asking for ...

she is aDOREYble, well done for rescuing her. she looks very happy in her new home.

It doesn't happen here either Paul, but I've had 'friends' joke about that when we've sadly lost girls It has been said to me before now too. Now I just retort something like, "wow there are some really strange people in ((name place or town)), you guys really eat your pets when they've died!&...

Had my Bluebelle a year now and she is laying regularly too.

Thanks for the replies,my coop is 7square feet including the nesting boxes so I think 9 girls will be to many.I will go for four girls on Sunday as well as the three I have already. I've introduced new ex batts before so I know what to expect,the run is big enough to separate for the new girls. I d...

That's how my Mabel was from day 1. Not being an experienced keeper I was baffled by it then. Is yours eating properly? does she drink way more than the others? Mabel could drink for England but she ate ok. whatever I did she still squished white water. The vet couldn't find anything wrong but gave ...
