Janty Posted March 28, 2009 Share Posted March 28, 2009 (edited) I got up and let the babies out today (if you can call 15 week old chickens babies) and Chips crowed. Granted he got a bit muffled in the middle and croaked a bit but he still crowed. I contacted Jo at Little Hen Rescue in Norwich and she kindly took him in this afternoon. He has been looking very cockerel like for a while now but we wanted to keep him for as long as we could. It was very hard letting him go as we have seen him grow from this... to this... Hope he gets a loving home soon. Jo said that she would keep me updated. Edited March 28, 2009 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Janty Posted March 29, 2009 Author Share Posted March 29, 2009 I am going to help out with a rescue on 9th April so I will be able to give him a snuggle if he hasn't gone to a new home. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gamebird Posted March 29, 2009 Share Posted March 29, 2009 I'm sure he'll get a good home. He's a very handsome young man and obviously well handled and docile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
