ubereglu Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 I missed it too , I was watching chicken run instead though . v. good film 3rd time I've watched it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 The Eglu bit was very short and the Eglu was there just to keep the chickens in and not a feature of the show.. The whole programme was interesting though - I enjoyed it. The different chickens were lovely, esp. the blue Orp. ("I want one of them......" ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicola H Posted December 31, 2005 Share Posted December 31, 2005 I thought the same thing Lesley but enjoyed the programme anyway... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarahJo Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 The chooks made me laugh ... especially when the largest had a fly peck at one of the others . Just goes to show ... if you have an eglu you can go anywhere .... would not have got a hen ark in the studio so easily (eh, FenWoman) .

Popcorn Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 Drat - I missed it too. Thanks for the run down though Lesley, glad it wasn't a whole program on the Eglu. I would have been even more gutted Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 Does anyone know which Chick was which? I really liked the very big grey one (The biggest one there) & would love to know which breed it was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 I didn't see it - we can't get that channel in Banbury Sounds like the big grey one would have been the Blue Orpington Sarah Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SarahJo Posted January 2, 2006 Share Posted January 2, 2006 That must have been the "Pecker" then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
