Egluntyne Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 It might be a good idea to sort out the hen with the dodgy poos, Debbie before you get any more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eyren Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 That Debbie should look after her chicken patients and curb her chicken impatience? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 Just beware Debbie - it never wears off, you always want more! I am up to full capacity with ten, but it doesn't stop me trying to work out how I can fit more in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 it's very tempting to get more but you have to consider the health and comfort of the girls you already have. Would you have enough room for more? I saw the pics of your run and it looks adequate for 6 but not more than that, unless you're planning to extend it?

Eyren Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 I know the feeling Debbie - I really wanted a gold partridge pekin, but superjules bought Thornes' last one (actually I'm not at all cross with her - if she hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known they had any). The two I got are absolutely adorable, but now I'm thinking, "Hmm, if I got a 9' x 6' walk-in run I could have a whole eglu full of pekins in an assortment of colours..." You'll just have to buy some chickenalia (anything decorated with chickens) to satisfy your cravings without annoying your LSH! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
