Barbara Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 (edited) THE CHICKENS HAVE NOW BEEN REHOMED Is anyone able to help? I have been contacted by a lady who needs to rehome two Omlet chickens. She says... "Pepperpot is friendly and likes a stroke and cuddle and has laid an egg every single day since we had her, gingernut is intelligent but a little shy and is very erratic with her egg laying and prone to soft shell eggs without extra supplements. We live in Market Harborough Leicestershire and would like an experienced home for them to go to. We would obviously let them go free to a new home." If you can help, please contact the owner through me at barbara@omlet.co.uk The owner is also wanting to sell her Eglu - Here Edited April 16, 2007 by Guest Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mrs Frugal Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Do you know, I've been thinking long and hard about this but as I've already got two non-egg laying hens I'm a bit reluctant to take on another one who isn't laying well. It's really difficult because I'd love to rehome them but I need hens that provide me with eggs regularly when only 1 out of 3 works. I need more hens for my Cube but LSH will only let me have a total of 6 hens - 4 of them need to be good layers. If no one else comes forward though, I will try and twist LSH's arm .

Martin B Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 I'm sure you could squeeze 8 in a cube! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 It's supposed to be for 8 hens I see your point about laying though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Frugal Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 I know it's supposed to be for 8 hens but LSH will only let me have 6. No leeway, I'm afraid . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Men are just bigger versions of little boys really, aren't they? Luckily, The Boy doesn't have any say in my house, so it's just my own money and time constraints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 It's VERY near to me, but OH has put his foot down too Probably couldn't fit another 2 into my eglu and run anyway. But do you really think he'd notice if I did? He can't tell the difference between all the ones I've got now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
