I do love a happy ending. :D

 

Do battery hens go broody?

 

in theory no........but after my Clarrie stopped laying for good earlier this year, she liked to wander into the nestbox and organise all the eggs into a nice nest and sit on them for a while :D and she lets my tiny bantam Mille sleep under her wing at night, just like a broody mum would :D :D :D

That's lovely and good to hear cos I joined the facebook campaign to save Basil the Cockeral. :D(Always felt sorry for the neighbours though :D )

the impression I got was that it was just one family objected and that the other residents wanted him to stay?

 

I wondered where he ended up, it's a lovely story :)
