Mark, what a wonderful thing to do! You really did a wonderful thing for that woman. Hopefully she'll do the same for someone else somewhere down the road. And I do think what goes around comes around...although the phrase is usually used when someone does something not very nice...so I hope good things come back your way, soon!

It is 10am here and the young family buying my eglu will be here between noon and 1pm. I really am going to be sad to see the girls and the eglu go. I should have thought this through a little more. When I ordered my cube, I had planned on building a large walk in run so I didn't order the attached run with the cube, with the eglu leaving (along with it's secure run) I won't have anywhere secure to keep the two of my original girls I was going to keep, so because the pecking order is sorted, and I have no place to secure the girls, and they are after all used to each other, I will be letting all four of my girls be rehomed along with the eglu.

Oh Mark, that's really sad . Can't you find a way to keep the two - you should be able to get something to make a run? Have you seen Mostin's run made out of wire building site type panels? It seems such a shame to end up with no girls at all .

I know especially since I have the cube sitting empty out in the drive. There just isn't any feasible way I could secure the girls against predators. I've tried just about everything I could think of, really the best solution is to keep the girls together in the eglu, I've ordered an attached run for the cube when I relized my mistake with the hopes it would arrive before the girls departure but no such luck. Lack of planning has surely made today a sad one.

 

BTW I just saw your WIR Vicki......you must be so pleased, it is a thing of beauty.

oh Mark, I'm so sorry that you are giving up your Steel Magnolia girls!

 

I'm sure you'll be sending them off with concern for their best interests and with a tear in your eye and love in your heart. All the best to them, their new family and to you for your selflessness

[maryeadrian]

Mark, I'm so sorry to hear you're losing all four of your girls. That will be a very sad thing.

No consolation, I'm sure, but at least the girls will be together.

[Angels4]

Thanks everybody I will work it out. I'm a combination of very sad and a bit angry as well, angry at myself (for not thinking about a secure run), but also with my sister and her fiance (which I posted about a while back) my sister and I agreed on the chickens, but her fiance had some problems with it and well, now I'm moving, which I blame on the two of them, more my sister as she hasn't a backbone and allows men to control her. This has been a constant source of contempt since Christmas 2008, and now it will end with the departure of the girls, followed by my departure in April.

I will always be there for my sister (and nephews) as they are my only family and I love them, but I don't trust her anymore, it will take a long while for me to come to grips with all that has transpired over the past couple of months. One door closes and another opens. I will view this as a new start.

So sorry to hear your news Mark , it's so sad but at least you know for sure your girls will be comletely safe. I suppose they'll be gone now otherwise I would also post ideas of ways you might keep them. I'll keep my mouth shut though, as I bet that will just upset you now.

 

Hopefully once you get settled at the beach with your cube and your new girls you can still have a really good relationship with your nephews without having to put up with your Sister and fiance. You'll be providing a really safe bolt hole for those kids as well.

 

Very true that another window is opening for you, big hugs
