jimnpaula Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 I can't wait! But I know I have to. Anyone know what the waiting time for a cube is? Hopefully they will ring me soon with a delivery date. P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falkor Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Great news! Exciting isn`t it! What colour have you gone for? I think delivery can depend times can depend on whether you are in the delievery area for Omlet van or not. I am in the area but as i didn`t get chooks they sent it by courier and i got it two weeks earlier than if I waited for the Omlet man.

Ms Tilytinkle Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Ooooh well done, how exciting !!! Ms Tillyschooksarebeingblownawaytodayhereupontheblusteryhill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimnpaula Posted September 3, 2009 Author Share Posted September 3, 2009 They're supposed to ring to arrange delivery so I'll find out soon enough, just have to be patient. As for colour, if it were me it would have been a difficult choice between lairy orange or bright purple, but DH decided we should have a red one. I thought it would be nice to let him be right for a change. Ms Tilly, as you don't use it, would you mind if I try your superglug when the girls arrive?

Space Chick Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 Congratulations Couldn't help noticing your signature..... You said you don't know whether to get 4 or 6 ex batts, are you getting the standard run with your cube or are you extending it? If you are getting the standard run, personally I would only get 4 hens, 6 would be too much of a squeeze IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimnpaula Posted September 3, 2009 Author Share Posted September 3, 2009 Cube + run + extension, should be enough room for 6? It's just that we've never had birds before and we're still undecided whether to start small and then have to do intros, or jump in with both feet and start with more... ... or is there not much difference between having 4 and 6 anyway?!

Falkor Posted September 3, 2009 Share Posted September 3, 2009 I would say the more space you can give them the better I didn`t notice the difference when I moved to six from four. I am noticing a difference now that I have 14 (but this is cos they are spread over three houses as we are still in introduction stages) Watch out, they are addictive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
katieD Posted September 4, 2009 Share Posted September 4, 2009 i say- scrab the run and build a walk in one with the cube inside- saves the hassle later when your addicted and want lots and lots! xxx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimnpaula Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share Posted September 7, 2009 It's coming on 22nd Sept! Now, to find out when I can get my ex-batts... think we'll go for 6.... P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
