half dozen Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 After losing one of our girls yesterday we are going to get two 8 week old cochins on wed. They will be kept seperated by run from the other girls, but Im not sure what to give them to sleep on at their age never had young girls so feel a bit inexperienced.Please help!

Egluntyne Posted September 26, 2008 Share Posted September 26, 2008 I got my Hogwarts girls at eight weeks. At first they were too small for the roosting bars, to I took them out and just had them on Aubiose in the poo tray. When the were about 12 weeks I put the bars back and filled them to the top with Aubiose. Now they just have the roosting bars in the normal way.

Egluntyne Posted September 28, 2008 Share Posted September 28, 2008 A hemp based horde bedding material that many of use use for our hens. It costs about 8 quid from equestrian shops etc. Hemcore is very similar. **Click** Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
