keyhole kate Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 Does anyone know of any good chicken suppliers? I live near Watford, Herts but don't mind travelling a couple of hours! Also, any tips for introducing 2 new chickens to my 2? I was going to wait to put them in the new space all at the same time? Hi Mandy quite a lot of omleteers have recommended Thornes at Letchworth http://www.thornespoultrycentre.co.uk I havent been there myself I dont trust myself so come back empty handed There is a topic on the forum re intros I would read that before taking the plunge slow intros are definarely the way to go KK Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mandy Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Thanks Kate. I will read the advice on introducing new chickens - we don't have extra runs or space though so I'm not sure how we could introduce new chickens slowly! I thought if they were all put in the new walk in run at the same time it might make it easy but I'll read the advice - maybe I will have to stick with just my two chickens!

alex_m Posted May 24, 2010 Author Share Posted May 24, 2010 Well the divide I had in place didn't last despite numerous attempts to resecure it didn't go well. Witnessing sorting out the pecking order wasn't nice. It seems to have calmed down now. They give tallulah a wide berth in the run. Hoping they can all play nicely soon. Will get some pictures sorted soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
