CatsCube Posted January 17, 2008 Share Posted January 17, 2008 Really nice article. I think chicken keeping is becoming the new thing. Like carrying small dogs around in handbags. Perhaps we will see Paris Hilton wandering round with an Ex Batt under her arm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps we will see Paris Hilton wandering round with an Ex Batt under her arm. I agree, I watch 'to buy or not to buy' and they had chooks in the gardens 2 days running then, on 'car booty' a cple wanted to raise money to get started in chicken keeping! I hope these people rushing to get ex batts have thought it all thru first, mind you they'll get screened by the co-ordinators. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
