Martin B Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Wow. I feel really privilidged. Yes Avacados are apparently poisonous for chickens. Good luck with your eglu quest. Have you arranged to meet an eglu owner? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swindon_clucker Posted August 24, 2006 Author Share Posted August 24, 2006 not yet closest ones chippenham which is a far way away from swindon It could be done but it's a tad to far and I doubt my mum's willing to take me that far.But if I see one close I'll definately go for it. When I get my eglu I'll put my name on the visit list !!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted August 24, 2006 Share Posted August 24, 2006 Maybe put an advert in the Visit an egluowner section. Something like "Please may I visit an eglu near Swindon." There may be members who see it that aren't on the list but may make an exception. Keep Trying! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Christian Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 Laverne and Shirley after a 'Happy days' spin off (some tv series my other half suggested - i'm too young to remember it)!!!!

Guest Posted August 25, 2006 Share Posted August 25, 2006 I wanted to call Hunney and Darling, LaVerne and Shirley, but my 3 year old jumped in and named them before I got a look in. I'm the one who feeds them, cleans them out, cares for them when they're sick and bought them in the first place, yet the children seem to name them and eat all the eggs. Where did it all go wrong...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
