Martin B Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 Hi, I have seen these on other forums, but I can't find anywhere selling them other than ebay and I would like to compare prices if possible. Has anybody got any reccomendations or experience with these? Thankyou, Martin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blonde Chicken Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 I got mine from Amazon they have single string blue or white LED lights they are very bright, when we had them on the old Omlet run it looked like an aeroplane landing strip!

tenzin Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 I got some years ago and they were a waste of money , i'd like to know if they've improved as mine cost £35 for 4 and i gave them away Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin B Posted November 26, 2007 Author Share Posted November 26, 2007 I'm looking for fairy lights, like the ones you put on a Christmas tree. They do outdoor solar ones now but I'm struggling to find a supplier other than ebay. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules. Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 I think Craftyhunypie got hers from Homebase or Focus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlottechicken Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 I bought some ordinary icicle ones to put up on the front of the house this year (in the sale from Wilkinsons, less than a fiver). Just have to work out how much electric they will use before I dare switch them on, solar ones would be great Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lesley Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 They don't have them in Stratford Homebase either Martin I'll check out Amazon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 Thanks for that Egluntine,I have just ordered a set too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 Thanks for that Egluntine,I have just ordered a set too I hope they work! They rather took my fancy and seemed a good price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura & CTB Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 Me too - thanks Egluntine !! (Ooooh it's like having a personal shopper). Am going to light up the chicken run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 I am not lighting up the run,for the fear that they might not go to bed or Indiana might start his night time crowing again There is a small pretty tree in the middle of the lawn which will look gorgeous with these on - I got the white ones,what did you guys get?

Egluntyne Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 I have a Spruce tree at the front of the house that I fancied tarting up. I went for the white ones too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 Oooo, I really fancy something like that for the two little conifers I have in pots in the front - wonder if 60 would do both trees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laura & CTB Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 I went for the blue ones - I'm hoping I (CTB ) can fix them round the front of the run so I can see them from indoors but chickens cant see them from the eglu. If that doesnt work then I also have a rather nice box tree they would go well on - just like the piccie in the advert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted November 27, 2007 Share Posted November 27, 2007 A house near me had loads of tiny red lights in their tree last year - it looked super. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cinnamon Posted December 1, 2007 Share Posted December 1, 2007 My string of eBay lights came today,& I am so pleased with them that I have ordered another couple of strings to give the garden a really bling look this season They are really good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emu Posted December 2, 2007 Share Posted December 2, 2007 Yeah me too getting bit impatient now. The king(DH) awaits the arrival of the three Queens I probably wrap a small bit of tinsel around them for a photo shoot only!
