sparkysmum Posted October 11, 2009 Share Posted October 11, 2009 So very sorry to read of your sad news. Do please consider offering other ex batts a home, they are such fab, feisty ladies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dancing cloud Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 So sorry to hear your news and, like others above, I'd encourage to you to adopt some more ex-batt girls once you're over the shock of this. They are lovely chooks and will learn very quickly from Margot and Barbara - the bad habits at least! Lots of ((hugs)) to you all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whoopsie Posted October 12, 2009 Author Share Posted October 12, 2009 I probably will get some more but I need to recover a bit first.. M&B seem very recovered this morning which is very good news. They weren't impressed at being shut in last night though and were practically pecking the door down this morning! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cluckingmad Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Glad to hear Margot and Barbara are ok this morning, was thinking about them last night (gave my girls an extra cuddle too).. Keep your chin up sweetheart x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beingmaisie Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I'm really sorry to hear that but you did a great thing in taking them in. I am thinking of getting some myself to go with my girls, Holly & Ivy. Good luck to you in the future Gill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

whoopsie Posted October 13, 2009 Author Share Posted October 13, 2009 Margot got me up shouting again this morning - no fox to be seen but i think she was spooked by the cat! Let them both out for the first time today and they were VERY clingy. Rather awkward doing the garden/cleaning the Eglu when two chooks want to be cuddled!!!!
