Re: Have had to buy eggs!!Yes, the taste certainly is much better!!!! We spoil ourselves in the end. I don't like shop bought eggs at all now, and would rather just use my own!!!
Re: So angry and sickenedabsolutely terrible crime!!! How people can do such things is betond me!
Re: Am shocked and mortified!!!Oh what a trauma for you madmum. Wendy, with her immense knowledge is right as always!! Dogs cannot be expected to like all they meet (as with any animal). I would definitely not become tense when you meet other dogs, otherwise Max will pick up on this tension, and feel that there is a reason to be ...
Re: Help with new ex batts pleaseI would say the same really - making sure they can see each other is the key. I find it far easier to introduce similar numbers of new to old - (or a couple more new ones), so the older ones don't go mental pecking at the newer ones. Also, I'd get another drinker and feeder, so when you do transfer ...
Re: Where do you buy your suppliesYou should be able to find a livestock feedmerchant - or maybe a Wynnstay or countrywide?
I use a local animal feed place which is fine. Pets at home is fine, but you're paying over the odds there
Re: Advice on moving chooksI would use cardboard boxes, with newspaper in the bottom, with plenty of ventilation holes. When it's dark, they seem to settle down and keep calm and quiet. It's not too far either, so I'd say you'll be ok with them on that journey. Just make sure their new home is ready and waiting with plenty of...
Re: pie is not laying anymoreYes, definitely could be due to age - young or old, any change in enviornment or sorting out the pecking order!! They're very sensitive souls

Re: DTL Grow your Own Vegetable Show 2010 (Comments)I love this!!!!! Love the pictures - those onions look huge - like lifting weights!!
I haven't planted a thing this year!! Hope to get a late crop of potatoes in next month, and a quick run on lettuce if I'm lucky!
Re: Sadly need to rehome our boy ducksBuxton in Derbyshire Willow - I didn't know there was another one!!
Re: Sadly need to rehome our boy ducksHello Willow!!!
It's been a while since I've been on here. I could help, but not for a few weeks, as I'm not moving until then. I will have 10 acres and a pond for them? however, I will be leaving near Buxton which is a bit far isn't it!!
Re: Ann nearly three months onAhhh bless - she looks ready to eat - only joking - I'm a vegetarian!!!
Re: little Jerry didn't make itIt's so sad to hear your news, but at least they have had happy times with you. It can happen with ex-batts.
I had 4 ex-batts 4 years ago, and 2 are still going strong, and even laying - it's hard, but you know you rescued them!
Re: Had a visit from foxYou were very lucky, I bet you're so relieved he didn't get in!
Re: PhotographyVery pretty!
