Single 5yr old Bluebell needs a retirement home

Post by EasyG »

Hi all,

I have a single Bluebell who is 5 years old. Her last friend died a few months ago and I don't like the thought of her being on her own as I don't intend on getting any more chickens.

I would love to find her a new home for her final years. She still lays, but only a few times a week, has always had a large covered run to play in and is still very inquisitive and lively.

I am in Bristol if anyone close is interested. I don't want anything for her and will even delivery her to you as long as your not too far away.

Anyone interested please message me.

EasyG

Sorry but I don't want your Bluebell but I have a chicken living on her own and she is as happy as Larry. When I moved 21 months ago I had 3, 2 passed on and I was concerned as to whether Bertha would live on her own....no problems.

Thanks grannyof4, appreciate that. I have kept chickens for over 10 years now and never had one on her own.

Do you think she would integrate with a skittish leghorn and a buff orpington? It is hard to seperate at the moment but if we cold try. PM me where you are in Bristol I am in Little Stoke
