witch-1 Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 My 3 chooks need rehoming - if possible this weekend (I've sold their coup - so they're homeless). Can anyone help? They are just coming up to a year old - a bluebell, amber star and bovan goldline. I brought them last August from Cotswold Chickens. At present I get most days 2 eggs. One I think has layed all winter the other two take it in turns. I live in Chippenham, Wiltshire. Can anyone home my chooks please? (Reason for homing, we tidied up the garden last year and it looked really nice, each time we sweep the stones back off the patio etc the chooks sweep them back, can't keep up with them! Next time I will have more land so I can let them free roam all the time) Many thanks Jan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 I'm sure someone will snap them up. What a shame you have had to let them go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Shame you sold the house before you found a new home for them. Sorry I can't help, but hopefully someone will be along shortly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 No house? You will need to make sure you have somewhere secure for your chooks to roost as it is really fox season at the moment. You will end up without any chooks to rehome. I hope you find somebody incredibly soon, poor things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
witch-1 Posted April 19, 2008 Author Share Posted April 19, 2008 Many thanks - rehomed to local farmer. I had a brick shed they could have been kept in if needed. Sold house much faster than expected... good ole Ebay! We are hoping to move once kids leave school/6th form (4-5yrs time) and buy somewhere with land... I will definately have chickens again - but not in my back garden It was more OH than me that got fed up - I really loved having them... so sad day, but they'll be well looked after.

buffie Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 Happy endings. Far better to organise the rehoming first though BBx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emily-Jane Posted April 19, 2008 Share Posted April 19, 2008 ahh nutss! I'm too slow of the mark Chippenham is kinda close to good old Bristle! (I have a few friends who live in the Corsham/Box area!) I have no coop/nesting box though and the fence is broken (hardly secure!) ahh well!
