CannyCat Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 ...I think it would be great if the grub was actually two seperate sections rather than one with two holes, so you could fill half with pellets and half with mash... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 That's an excellent idea Canny! I think there was even an idea about a year ago for half sized grugs/glugs/peanuts i.e. just one 'lobe'. I don't know whether James gets time to get on the forum these days, so it might be a good idea to email him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CannyCat Posted September 20, 2006 Author Share Posted September 20, 2006 I feel bad for always hassling him about this stuff...!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyHen Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Please email him! I agree with the suggestion too. I would like one 'grub' for pellets and the other for grit/oyster. At the moment I have the grit on an old flowerpot saucer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 We bought a couple of seed dishes for the run to put grit in. I think they're called 'Coop Cups', and they come in various different sizes. They are stainless steel, and the girlies love admiring their reflections in them!

CannyCat Posted September 20, 2006 Author Share Posted September 20, 2006 .... or you could buy another grub! They're a wee bit pricey, and to be honest I'm not sure I could reach far enough into the run to fit a 3rd grub/glug! Ok, I'll go email him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 Thanks Shona, that reminds me that you can also get cheap (pardon the pun) plastic clip on bowls for budgie cages - they are great for grit or just temporary feeders.

But if you bought a Rolls Royce, would you put a tupperware drinks holder in it? (Mind you this could *add* value to something like a Berlingo. ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted September 20, 2006 Share Posted September 20, 2006 I think Clare might have seen it already, but is refusing to dignify it with a response! Either that or she really *has* got a tupperware drinks holder in her Berlingo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CannyCat Posted September 26, 2006 Author Share Posted September 26, 2006 ...and another thing:- Has anyone noticed that the hollow hooks which hold the grub on the mesh collect food which goes mushy, and then sets inside the hook?!?! I think the grub should have solid hooks - far easier to clean. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HappyHen Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 OK, I conceed. As the eglu is the Rolls Royce of hen coops I've ordered another grub! Now they can have their grit served in style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeramaSilly Posted September 26, 2006 Share Posted September 26, 2006 Yeah I've noticed that too Cannycat - I blast it under the tap before washing because it all congeals into one horrible mess and won't come out otherwise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
