thewhitehouse Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 I've been browsing the forum for ages now and have finally taken the plunge and registered. I find the forum so helpful and its a great time waster! I had my girls from Wernlas and collected them early September. They started to lay just before Christmas and we currently get an average of three eggs a day! What wonderful pets they make - I love them to bits - all different characters, so amusing. The Barneys have decided to moult daft things and today Tikka is a bit off colour with a mucky bum. Thanks to a bit of browsing I'm off to get some flubenvet tomorrow to see if that does the trick. If not we'll be away to see our lovely vet on Monday. Anyway thought I'd say hello to all you lovely omleteers. Not sure if I've got the hang of setting up the automatic signatures and so on yet so may be a while before I''m up to posting of your standard!

BeckyBoo Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Looks like you got the hang of it to me! Welcome to the forum, it's great here isn't it? I reckon almost everything I know about chooks I learnt on here, as well as everything else! It's also responsible for all my cooking, pickling baking, jam making, never mind the two magazines I now subscribe to Still, now you're "officially" here you'll have to show us some pics of your hens, it's the law!

Gamebird Posted January 24, 2009 Share Posted January 24, 2009 Welcome to the forum. I'm afraid this forum is addictive so be prepared to be on-line for some considerable time. Can we have some photographs of your new girls? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
