Now we have a bigger run, one that is big enough for ten hens and we have a Cube that will house say ten hens and since Spodge shuffled off to the big coop in the sky leaving us with only five, I thought it might be good to get another five :D:D:D:D:D:D .

 

So I have been looking on the breeders site where we got our last bunch and it seems a little odd on the pricing front. :?

 

The chooks are typically around £10 each if you buy 1-5.

 

But, if you buy 6-25 they are only £7.50 each.

 

So it works out £5 cheaper to buy 6 rather than 5 :?

 

SOOO.... do I buy six and risk squeezing in 11 in the Cube, pay £5 extra for one less or do I buy six and accidentally on purpose let one escape back over the fence to the breeder on the way out and pretend not to notice :whistle::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

 

Oh I think I will make this a poll!

 

I think I know which way Cathy will vote :wink:

 

Kev.

 

Edited: I never could spell coop, hence my username!

ooh, tough one. I mean, you're paying the same anyway, it's just the breeder's pricing that changes your point of view.

 

 

 

GET SIX!

 

 

 

Who are the three people who have voted for the other options? :? They can't be regular forum members!

Hmm, what a difficult decision :think: . This needs careful deliberation and consideration of the consequences of having an extra hen over and above the number that you had originally decided to purchase :think: .

 

It's obvious isn't it - the number 6 has the shape of an egg in it, sort of, and 5 just isn't the shape of anything so it's obviously a sign from the chicken gods :D . It's got to be six :D .

I thought so, especially so early in the morning. I've just reserved 3 ex-batts and know that I won't be able to stop at 3. I can predict that we'll sell the eglu, buy a cube and have a whole flock!

 

You still in any doubt couperman, or do you need more convincing?
