Martin B Posted April 10, 2007 Author Share Posted April 10, 2007 The hens were too noisy and they upset the neighbours. Poachy is a nightmare for noise! She seems to shut up if you spray her with water! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hillfamily Posted April 10, 2007 Share Posted April 10, 2007 Oh dear Martin...................I hope your neighbours aren't too mad Do all Bantams make a lot of noise *she asks having just got 2 little baby banties that cheep all the time.................but it's really quite sweet and not loud at all................hoping constant cheeping doesn't turn into constant squawking* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubereglu Posted April 11, 2007 Share Posted April 11, 2007 Martin, didn't you used to have a woodchip area, see pic: Could you move the rabbit eglu off there and on to the grass. Then you'd have both of the eglus on the woodchip, creating less damage to the grass-just a thought. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted April 11, 2007 Author Share Posted April 11, 2007 I do have a woodchip area. The rabbit ate all the grass so we moved them on to the woodchips also. Somebody on the INEBG forum, posted about a roll of artificial grass that you can chuck onto the pavement. May be an idea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
