Ali B Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 I'm in South Wales too, a few miles outside Monmouth in a village called Grosmont. Lovely chicken territory, lots of garden and places for them to play!

MadMitch Posted August 5, 2008 Share Posted August 5, 2008 Hello, I'm also in Wales (just outside Llandeilo). I get my chicken supplies from Pumsaint/Countrywide stores- they're really good and have got everything I've ever needed. I've got the cube and 6 ex-batts and 3 black rocks (given to me). I've had them since last October and am enjoying every minute of them. Helena Another local, you're not too far from me then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nicschicks Posted September 5, 2008 Share Posted September 5, 2008 I'm in Wales too (Cefneithin, near Cross Hands), and got my 4 girls a week ago, 2 from Brenda at Happy Hens, and the other two from Steve at the Poultry Mill. I've found all of the bits and bobs I need at C&P Farmers in Cross Hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl80 Posted September 6, 2008 Share Posted September 6, 2008 Im from penarth, south wales. Got 3 ex batts last weekend, they're taking up every minute of my day! They've settled in fine, despite this rubbish weather. Im trying to improve their run but it just turns into a muddy wet mess within hours. Got a bit of a problem with bullying but hopefully that should sort itself out soon enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kerryegg Posted May 16, 2011 Share Posted May 16, 2011 Hi from South Herefordshire. To avoid the awful Hereford traffic we have started using Heygates pellets from AJR Poultry at Llangellen near Abergavenny. They have a web site and from our brief trips to buy food, the various chickens, geese and ducks look well cared for. I don't know if any other forum members have visited. I have 4 girls in an eglu so can't even window shop. Hope fully I won't need any more for a long time. Interesting thread ressurrected.

Yep, I've had 2 chooks and 6 hatching eggs from AJR ( 4 hatched )Little too far for us to go for pellets though, unfortunately- stuck with the poor selection in Hereford.

craftyhunnypie Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 A few weeks time & I'll be in the Welsh clan too. Ceredigion - Bont not far from Devils Bridge. I know literally no one there apart from a few people who own The Hafod Hotel - oh & Lewis off the forum. Can't wait to move, so I can do my 2011 hatching. I'm having chick withdrawal symptoms! Will be nice to meet up with a few of you. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
