Kathy C Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 Whilst gathering in the groceries today in Sainsbury's I saw Country Life magazine which had a georgeous cockeral on the cover and the headline "Poultry in Motion - why Britain has gone chicken crazy". Of course I had to buy a copy to read more . The article spans 8 pages including a bit on "which breed?", some peoples' stories and all about evil battery farming. There is a picture of an Cube on p140 and the BHWT gets a mention on p141. Maybe we will top 3000 memnbers soon . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cate in NZ Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 I had to go for an x-ray a few days ago, and was expecting a short while of feeling quite bored waiting for my turn (I hate hospital waiting rooms at the best of times ) Imagine my delight when they had that exact magazine sitting there in the waiting room I had time to read the entire article before I got called Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 Thanks for reminding me about this - Phil mentioned seeing it yesterday; I might just have to go and have a read in Smiths. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 I might just have to go and have a read in Smiths. Thats shocking Claret! I would never do that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubereglu Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 I read slowly though! Not too slowly, but I couldn't read 8 pages whilst in a shop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Richard Posted June 7, 2007 Share Posted June 7, 2007 I liked the article - especially 'for "bright and alert" read "will argue with a Jack Russell"' Perhpas they were talking about a Maran cockerel. Kitchen Garden is another magazine that has a chicken section - each issue has an article in it. They used to be written by the lady that owns the Shropshire place - was it Wensum Collection? - but its a different person now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
