SarahJo Posted March 16, 2006 Share Posted March 16, 2006 My brother's mate Phil can't stand watching it as his Dad used to be Pig farmer before Foot and mouth. Howver he now has hundreds of hens. ..... at the adopted flock, they don't watch it, as the farmer says its utter rubbish and makes his wife turn it off ... I can understand to a certain extent now why. . Incidently .. they have electric fence, and a good shot , for fox deterant, and there have been no major attacks. However, , sadly something smaller has been in, and left the carcass of the 2 chicks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted July 20, 2006 Share Posted July 20, 2006 Looking at the other thread, it sounds like it was a repeat of the one I have seen - never mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chocchick Posted July 27, 2006 Share Posted July 27, 2006 Is Yorkshire TV backwards Saw recording for the 1st time yesterday as always miss it. I just saw the episode with the foxes being shot and Jimmy winning a pig show ( ) I laughed when I heard he did a PhD in insects before this (especially after seeing the bee handling ). I often dream of starting a poultry farm after my PhD* and to see someone else do the same.... * evil PhD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted August 3, 2006 Share Posted August 3, 2006 I'm being very brief. But I love Jimmy's Farm and I saw the red eglu on the programme! I watched it in Portugal and it's on for a split second in the background with lots of chickens around it (not in it)!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
