ubereglu Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Go for it. Lucky you to be rescuing some battery hens. I want to rescue some of them too. But there' no space left in our garden! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AnnieP Posted January 6, 2007 Share Posted January 6, 2007 Oh Good Luck Ballgunner! Great thing to do! Hope you've been chatting to Emma and KateA lots about what to do with your new arrivals. Let's hope its not too cold when they arrive, and that they have lots of feathers.... Do make sure you take lots of pictures so we can see their progress as they become "proper" chickens!

Cate in NZ Posted January 7, 2007 Share Posted January 7, 2007 Hi Ballgunner, I've just had a phone conversation with Jean about this rescue, and logged on to alert you to the fact that it's happening...... only you already know . At least I'm assuming that you're collecting your hens from Jean . As I understand it the date could be either 20th or 27th January, either way it's a Saturday, but she's still waiting for the farmer to confirm. I've got fingers crossed that it's the 27th as we've got a weekend away with friends on the 20-21st Jan, and since it's all because of hubby's birthday I can't really cry off....... even though I'd love to be at the rescue. Hopefully I'll get to meet you there (I'll be the one covered in chicken poo..... they get me every time, much to the hilarity of my fellow rescuers who manage to stat pristine ). You might get to meet some other forum regulars as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
