chick wiggle Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 (edited) How does that happen then ? On Saturday we went to choose 3 or 4 new chickens. We ended up with 2 bluebells (Belle and Pumpkin) 2 speckeldys (Minnie and Martha) and 2 black rocks! (Missus and Cleo) They are gorgeous tho However now it means 2 flocks, 2 houses and 1 garden split into 2 Also my OH has now gone into overdrive with plans for the new WIR Dont know how on earth this happened Edited July 3, 2009 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ain't Nobody Here Posted June 30, 2009 Share Posted June 30, 2009 That was terribly careless of you . But congratulations anyway . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chick wiggle Posted June 30, 2009 Author Share Posted June 30, 2009 Careless maybe But I had a spare house ready for some exbats and as they were all rehomed before I could get any it was just sat there shouting at me 'fill me, fill me' and so I did Will definately add pics soon as I can Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mostin Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 That's chicken maths for you , sounds perfectly logical to me . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancing cloud Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Entirely with you all on the chicken maths My originally-intended 4 ex-batts became 6 on collection, and have now become 9 (and my orginal one Puddy-cat has now become 3 and 3/4 ). Obviously the amount of love we have to give expands to meet the amount needed - just have to hope the amount of income increases in the same way Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Funny how they just hurl themselves into your shopping basket isn't it? Congratulations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scramble Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Gorgeous girls My parental units have refrained from taking me anywhere were you can buy chickens because we just don't have much room, meanwhile I'm thinking of converting the shed...

chick wiggle Posted July 3, 2009 Author Share Posted July 3, 2009 Sounds like a plan to me Scramble, My OH has already got the wood for my WIR Its amazing how a few more chickens can get them moving when they fear for their lawn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chick wiggle Posted July 4, 2009 Author Share Posted July 4, 2009 Thank you all, my guilt is slowly subsiding especially as the newbies already have let me have a stroke and a cuddle Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
