scooter Posted October 26, 2006 Share Posted October 26, 2006 Got my Egloo got my chickens. I could have bought 100 its so hard to chose. I ended up with three minature buff orpingtons (why three no idea) One black and white chook name escapes me but i think its lace something (bantam The next day thought this is not right bantam outnumbered, so off again and came back with a white bantam. All happily living together but havent been out yet, two days to go and counting. Then i thought need a run extension, ordered and arrived. This chicken keeping is infectious and costly but great fun. My other half thinks i am mad, in the morning i sit on the bench next to the egloo and talk to them for ages. Am i mad or are we all the same Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everyone is really helpful here so don't be afraid to ask silly questions (I have asked loads). You can't be besotted by chickens too much in my opinion!!!!
