Chicken boarders

Hello All

I joined this fantastic , friendly forum a few weeks ago when I won my cube on ebay.

I brought a couple of run extensions because I wanted 6 girls and in my last post on here, I was advised my run wasn't long enough..so now got a 4m run

Finally got my new chocks yesterday.,,6 hybirds..( not sure what breeds !)

Its going great..a bit of a game catching them and getting them up in to the cube last night , but amazing all but 2 were already in when I went out at 21:00 to put them away

 

I haven't managed to to get them to drink from the superglug yet..but I have a normal glug and rabbit nipple drinker too so they are fine

 

I have been advised to get mash and nnot pellets as they are in the run and need to be kept busy

 

I need to keep an eye on how much they are eating..as I think they will keep eating if food is there

But I'll let them stuff themselves for the first week until they are settled

 

I tied a cucumber to the bars today..they loved that !

 

well..thanks everyone for the advise

i#m sure i'll need more soon

 

I couldn't bring myself to buy any eggs from waitrose today, which is silly as they are not laying yet..so i'm egg less !!!

 

regards

Greg
