Cookie Posted June 5, 2006 Share Posted June 5, 2006 Hello, The Encyclopedia of Chickens is currently doing the rounds on the Omlet forum. It is a fab book, rammed with photos and info; I want Wyandotte bantams next time I am chicken-buying.... Crooked Chicken kindly donated the book, sent it on to Martin B, who then posted it on to me (ta, Martin - was waiting for me when I got back from holiday on Saturday - a lovely welcome back treat ). Who wants a look next? Love, Cookie. xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookie Posted June 21, 2006 Author Share Posted June 21, 2006 Right, this is the last time I'm going to bump this thread...does anyone want to borrow this book after me? If no-one wants to I'm going to send it back to Crooked Chicken who kindly donated it. Anyone?? Its a fab book! Love, Cookie. xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura & CTB Posted June 21, 2006 Share Posted June 21, 2006 Would love to borrow if at all possible - I'm still trying to decide what breed of chickens to get. I've only got the space for two but want about seven - they all look so beautiful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
