Carolinep Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 Hello all, I haven't been around much recently, but we unfortunately lost Georgia our G N R on Sunday. She had been ill for most of the week. Back in November she had to have her Oviduct removed as it was hanging totally out of her vent & neither us nor the vet could get it to stay in. So at £160 she had the op , xrays & whatever else seemed to have been thought up to put the bill up. (I was quite shocked at the figure) Still she did have a great life with us. We are looking to add some friends for Vera & Ruby, not quite sure what breed to get (although Silkies do look very appealing!) or indeed where to go (we are prepared to travel). I think it was Cookie that mentioned Thornes? Are they still in business as the link to their site doesn't want to work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted January 25, 2007 Share Posted January 25, 2007 So sorry - I lost a little hen today too, so I can sympathise. Silkies are lovely, we have a golden Silkie bantam, but they have a tendancy to go broody a lot so I hear. You could try Medowsweet for a local agent - they do a great range of hybrids including a blue egg layer. http://www.meadowsweetpoultry.co.uk/index3.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
