Falkor Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 BHWT Northampton have a last minute rescue this weekend. We have just been told we can get girls this weekend before they go to slaughter. Anyone interested in rehoming some girls please contact us urgently as we need to get hen numbers organised and save as many girls from slaughter as we can. Collection will be from Brackley NN13 If you are able and would like to rehome some of these very rewarding and loving ladies please email: anna.whiteside@bhwt.org.uk or emma.palmer@bhwt.org.uk (me) If you are closer to Coventry then it may be possible to collect from there but please mention this in your email. Many thanks Anna and Emma BHWT Northampton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted January 6, 2011 Share Posted January 6, 2011 Hope you can find homes for them Em x Anyone who can take some, I would strongly recommend it, they are so rewarding to have, I love my ex batts (that have now been out of the cage longer than they were in it, and I still get the occasional egg ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falkor Posted January 6, 2011 Author Share Posted January 6, 2011 Would you prefer me to have these or the poorlies Em ? If you could take the two ladies we spoke about then that frees me up some hospital space for new poorlies this weekend if that is ok? But then again depending on when you come you might like somebody new Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But then again depending on when you come you might like somebody new Yes that is fine - I'm working this weekend but will come and collect them on 15th or 16th whichever is best for you. I dreamt last night that I came to collect them and you gave me 2 labrador puppies that you insisted you had rescued with the chooks I wasn't fooled and came away with 2 girls but one had enormous ears like an elephant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
