Karen & co. Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Purple hens' red eglu has come to live in my garden soon to be filled with some ex-battery girls I'm getting like a child at Christmas, it's so exciting Many thanks to Jackie for selling it in the most perfect condition (I came home and gave my blue one a thorough scrub ) and for being so patient as I got stuck in huge traffic jams. karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sheilaz Posted August 26, 2006 Share Posted August 26, 2006 Wonderful, oh what fun! I can understand why you are so excited. Just to clarify, in case anyone's worried, I think Purplehen has replaced that red one, with a purple one, it's not that she's stopped chickenkeeping. I'm really pleased for you Karen.
