Griffin Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 It's two years today since I brought home my first ex-batts, Mimi, Maud & Meredith. Sadly Mimi died in January of last year but her sisters are still going strong. I never imagined they'd still be here after this length of time. They're amazing ladies and I hope they have many more happy days in the sun Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bramble Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 Congratulations!!! My ex-batts celebrated ten months of freedom last week, but sadly little Chicken Tikka died overnight. I guess ten months is better than nothing though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gongladosh Posted May 23, 2011 Share Posted May 23, 2011 When you think of the lifespan of a chicken - given GNRs are 3-4 years, nearly a year of freedom is roughly 25-30% of their life, I'd say that's a pretty good life of freedom all things considered! I'd like to get some ex-batts myself.. My local BHWT has its next run in 8 weeks or so.. hmm... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
