Bramble Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Well,the day is here, I'm off to collect my ex bats very shortly. I've filled up the grub and glug, put shredded paper and sawdust in the nesting section and in the box to bring the chucks home in, put some grit out, got my directions so hopefully that's everything ready. Very nervous, but excited too, it's about 50 miles to the collection point so hope the hens don't get car sick!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mercedes55 Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 Hope it all goes well picking them up, good luck Mine didn't like the grub at first, they were fine with the glug as they could see the water, but for some reason they wouldn't put their heads inside the grubs and I had to use my dog's bowls for nearly 2wks. The last couple of days though they have started eating out of them and so the dog now has her bowls back and I no longer have chicken poo in the bowls Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
