Shocking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snowy Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Blimey! Wish they had given more details of the stolen cube - it's not a million miles from me, would be good to know what we were keeping a look out for! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
majuka Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Disgusting, poor man must be so distraught, I hope at least some of his hens survived and make it home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Speckled Hen Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 They are so heavy,. Shocking. Absolutely horrendous...poor chooks. I don't think weight or bulk matters providing the little gits are prepared....anything goes. Lots of reports of beehives being stolen and we're talking about something that can weigh 30-40 kg and is full of assassins. My neighbour had 2000 litres of heating oil stolen from a newly filled oil tank while he was at dinner with me and hubby. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoid Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 PC Gareth Court said officers believed the thieves used a van or another vehicle to remove the hen house. Really Terrible news, I hope the thieves are caught and the rest of the hens are found safe and well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alis girls Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 Fed up with these people - have they nothing better to do - I have scribbled over my go with an invisible pen. Asked OH is we could put a few landmines in the back garden - we are having a lot of burgaries round here. He's worried as he knows if I could I would - bolshy mare I am Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lewis Posted March 10, 2012 Share Posted March 10, 2012 What a shame for them Would be a good idea to keep an eye on the forums and eBay for listings in the surrounding areas! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
