AAAAHHHHHHHHH! *New owner's questions

Recommended Posts

Its been nearly a year since we talked about having chickens and spent a lovely afternoon with Christian on one of his beginner courses, since then we've moved to a house with a bigger garden & done so much research I really thought Id prepared so well, until the girls arrived and I had a bad case of 'have i done the right thing' and 'I hope theyre happy here' So I can sympathise with you, ive had my girls since 9pm last night and all ive done is worry about them to the point of thinking they'd be better off being happy somewhere else :? I feel better after reading this thread and that Im not going bonkers with anxiety so thank you, its good to know others felt the same in the early days.

 

Was delighted at 9am this morning when we got our first egg, 12 hours after we brought them home. :dance: One has horrendous dirt balls on each claw so will be giving her a bath as recommended on this great forum :)

 

Anyway Id better go and do some chicken watching, its a wonderful way of easing 'first time owner' nerves :wink:

whatever you do, DONT read the chicken clinic section!!! it will scare you... obviously read it when you need to or think you could have a problem, but it gave me the right heebie-jeebies til I realised that it was a 'clinic' and therefore for ill chooks :lol: brilliant advice on there though - thanks everyone!

This also happened to me, I think Christian may be a stealth estate agent :shh:
