chixandthecity Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Hi We're moving house soon and sadly not able to take our two hens with us Does anyone know how we should go about rehoming them? We're in York. Grateful for any advice. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
surf_space Posted October 17, 2012 Share Posted October 17, 2012 Why don't you place an add on the Omlet breeds market place? Or maybe try putting up an advert at your local pet shop or somewhere like preloved? http://www.preloved.co.uk/ Hope this helps and your move goes well, so sad that you have to leave your chickens Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TooLilac Posted October 18, 2012 Share Posted October 18, 2012 Dear chixandthecity, I really feel for you. We are in York but sadly do not have room even for another two (so my OH has just told me rather crossly). There are a few Yorkshire chicken folk on FB, and they seem to be able to help when people need help rehoming their girls (and sometimes cockerels too). Can I suggest you do a FB search for 'Yokrshire Chicken Community' or 'Raw Green Cottages' or even 'Rainbow Egg Company'. Hopefully someone will be able to help your ladies find a lovely new home.

Egluntyne Posted October 19, 2012 Share Posted October 19, 2012 A polite reminder that rehoming via the forum is not permitted. Click to see policy and some advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chixandthecity Posted October 20, 2012 Author Share Posted October 20, 2012 Thanks for your replies and advice. I posted on FB and a friend mentioned that her neighbour has a few hens and might take ours. Lo and behold, she has happily agreed to have them and we're delivering them to their new home tomorrow! A happy h-ending (sorry)! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zakjon-98 Posted October 20, 2012 Share Posted October 20, 2012 Glad you found them a home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
