Dreadful, dreadful news. received this email:

 

Please excuse the unsolicited email but we are writing to everybody on our customer base to inform you that we shall not be open for business with effect from Wednesday 6th August 2008 until further notice.

 

We want to let everyone know as soon as possible the situation. Unfortunately, Simon has this week been diagnosed with cancer and will undergo surgery and/or treatment sometime on or after 6th August.

 

If you have birds on our waiting list, I am afraid we will not be able to fulfil your request for which we offer you our apologies (with the exception of those people who have made appointments for Friday 1st August). As Simon will not be in a position to look after our birds, we are going to sell off as many of the birds we have, including breeding stock, on a first come, first served basis. We shall be available as follows:

 

Saturday 2nd August from 10am onwards

Sunday 3rd August from 10am onwards

Monday 4th August from midday onwards

Tuesday possibly closed as we will be having a family day out.

 

Please feel free to call in, there is no need to book an appointment. If you need to know where we are situated if you have not visited us before, please email for full address/directions.

 

Many of the birds available are approx 8 weeks and younger and include breeds such as Orpington, Barnevelder, Andalusian etc - bantams and large fowl.

 

With kind regards

OMG I have never been there but that is so sad, poor man, how awful for them. How upsetting for everyone involved. I hope they are able to sell all their birds in time. I will pray he makes a full recovery from the awful illness.

I've just seen that Crooked Chicken has already posted this as "Urgent Chickens need rehoming this weekend"

 

Sorry for the duplication.

It's dreadful news indeed and I do hope that they can find buyers for all their stock . But this topic has already been posted about by Crooked Chicken, so if you don't mind I'm going to lock this to avoid duplicate postings.

 

Thanks
