Plum Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 That's 7 chickens worth £1000 between them. Over £100 each must have laid golden eggs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sam Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 That's 7 chickens worth £1000 between them. Over £100 each must have laid golden eggs. Thats what I thought! I've never been to a show or anything poultry related, but if they are show quality would they really be worth that much?! wow. I know tinkerbell, I was thinking that earlier although I only have 1x classic, if it did get stolen someone could make quite a lot! Would insurance cover an eglu?

Sam Posted February 24, 2011 Share Posted February 24, 2011 Aren't there rules though? Say if I left my bike out unlocked and that got stolen, they wouldn't pay because its not secured with a lock. Would that be the same with a coop? Next doors garage got broken into a few weeks ago (a few meters away from ours + coop ) so I thought if they came back and saw the eglu... They can go in our garage if they like, door doesnt even have a lock They can take my sacks of chicken poo old grass old leaves old bench old plant pots if they really like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
