Sorry to hear about this

[soapdragon]

Jane...so sorry to hear this but do think of the really lovely luxury life that your girls have had - far better, I am sure, than many other animals so try and focus on that. As someone else has also wisely pointed out, its not something that one does twice so hopefully you'll soon have some more feathered friends?!

[Mrs_B]

So sorry to hear that

 

I have closed the eglu up before cleaning and forgot to open it again, so the chickens were outside over night. It's easily done and I am sure everyone has made this mistake.

 

Big hugs x

So sorry to hear this, love to you all. Ax

[Purplemaniacs]

So sorry to read your post. Please don't be too hard on yourself we all make mistakes sometimes so sad that you had such a sad outcome.

Thanks for your support everyone. Haven't been in the garden since Thursday. I can still see some little white feathers blowing in the wind. We have had fox attacks before and been very lucky, but never lost the whole lot.

Plan to get another little flock when the weather gets a bit warmer.

[Old Speckled Hen]

So sorry,Jane.

I left my lot out all night once....just luck I got away with it.

Onward and upward......new chickens to look forward to.

Tell us what you get

After deciding to track down some cream legbars or araucanas for a little flock of blue egg layers I have completely changed my mind and am now picking up 4 rescue hens from Guildford on Sunday.

Very excited!!

Aw, lovely! So pleased you are going for rescue hens (and I know one person on this forum who will be delighted) and they are available in your area. Delighted you are getting more chooks and the fox hasn't put you off. Devastating to lose your girls but am glad you are thinking of more

That wouldn't be me would it redsunset?

 

I am absolutely delighted your taking on some of these special loveable little girls who will soon melt your heart.

What a lovely way to spend Mother's Day

I'm so glad you decided to get some more chooks.

[Cat tails]

Wait? What??? Mothers day??? Did I miss something???????

[auntielizzie]

I collected four rescue girls on sunday; I can't tell you how adorable they are! I call them "the babies" even though they are around 18 months old! I absolutely love them and I'm sure you will love yours too! Tonight they all took themselves up to bed for the first time together and I felt so proud of them

Ah bless them! It's amazing that after everything they have been through, and I can tell you first hand it wasn't pleasant, that they become real chickens so quickly. I am beyond greatful to anyone who considers taking on these lovely lucky girls as all you guys probably know now....

[mullethunter]

Mothering Sunday in the UK tubs Sunday Cattails. I know it's not the same in all countries though so maybe not for you?

[Cat tails]

No, I checked... Mothers day is in May... But you had me worried there for a second!

[Janepie33]

 

The new girls are here! A couple of them have crossed beaks, but it doesn't seem to stop them eating and drinking. Thought I'd have to coax them into the cube, but the all went to bed good as gold and they are now all snuggled up for the night.

[mullethunter]

Raggedy beasts

 

They're brilliant JanePie and great picture

[Cat tails]

Lovely!

 

The front one looks kinda like Kermit the Frog, when he is cross...

[Janepie33]

Thank you Cat tails. I think that chicken just got a name (Quasimodo seemed a bit unkind!).

[Old Speckled Hen]

Well done for giving them a chance to dance in your garden and see the sky
