Cinnamon Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 (edited) There is a super article on modern chicken keeping in the Mails "You" supplement today. They interview 4 people,one of whom is a fire fighter who has an Eglu. He is pictured topless,holding a chicken - lovely photo Anthoy,if you can get hold of a copy do take a look,as it is a lovely positive article expressing all the best points about keeping chickens Edited April 16, 2006 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 I wonder if you can view it online - we don't get the mail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted April 16, 2006 Author Share Posted April 16, 2006 I could try scanning it,but not sure if you are supposed to do that with published work? Or I can do a few photocopies to post out Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 Don't go to any trouble for me Sarah. I'll have a search for it first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted April 16, 2006 Author Share Posted April 16, 2006 Its in the "YOU" magazine which as well as being a supplement with TMOS is now for sale during the week,so you could pick one up in your local newsagants or supermarket its worth it for the article alone,as it is a really lovely happy piece Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popcorn Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 (edited) Thanks for that Sarah. I'll keep my eyes peeled. Anything that gives the eglu a mention is good, but for it to be a topless fire fighter too is a definate bonus I'll make sure Louise knows about it Edited April 16, 2006 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Linda Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 Thanks for the tip Sarah. I'll be picking up my copy shortly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cate in NZ Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 I actually rushed out to buy the paper, nice article, beautiful hens, but sorry, I thought the fireman was a disappointment, a bit ordinary really, despite the bare chest. The gingernut that he was holding was very pretty though And not an eglu in sight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Blue Sky Posted April 16, 2006 Share Posted April 16, 2006 Freeranger I just read your link! Bleurgh! Not happy reading, but necessary - if I want to buy chicken, even free range organic, I need to be real and informed about it. Thank you.

Linda Posted April 18, 2006 Share Posted April 18, 2006 There's no hope for some of us is there?! It was quite a nice article. What it said to me was that all different sorts of people with varied lifestyles/circumstances could keep chickens quite easily. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
