HRC99 Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Well, I've taken the plunge! I'd been really keen for a while but my girlfriend was a bit nervous and not sure whether she'd like them but thanks to Pinkybijou who kindly let my girlfriend and I meet her chooks, she was hooked. We spent Sunday clearing an area of the garden and laying down some paving slabs. Then first thing this morning, I rang Omlet and next Friday our purple cube is being delivered! I've also spoken to the local breeder recommended to us and we're visiting him next Saturday to choose our chooks! I cannot wait!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
susanbb Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 YAAAAAAAAAY Well done. You'll love it and your new friends when you get them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
little chickadee Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Hurrah - congratulations. I think you have made a very good choice with the colour of your cube (see below ) Have fun putting it together (allow longer than you think it will take!) and chosing your girls. Any ideas what you're going to get? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Any ideas what you're going to get? No idea what we're going to get. Any suggestions are always appreciated. I got his information from Omlet and he's only about 10 miles away. He does it as a bit of hobby rather than a business as such. Pinkybijou had two lovely hens from him. So I'm really excited to see what he's got!

chelsea Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Well done, you wont regret it believe me! keeping chickens is very addictive, they are such great characters and we cant imagine a life without chooks now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pinkybijou Posted February 11, 2008 Share Posted February 11, 2008 Brilliant that you went ahead! Maybe in the future when I have the chicken bug even worse than now I'll come and visit your Cube and upgrade! Glad your g/f had a cuddle with our Doris too, I'm sure that's what swung it, ha!

HRC99 Posted February 12, 2008 Author Share Posted February 12, 2008 I think the cuddle clinched it too. She was pretty nervous about picking one up but that disappeared as soon as she had a cuddle with Doris and was extremely giddy all the way home!
