Hi all, I'm still just finding my way around on this forum, just found this page so now I can introduce my flock. We have 1 chocolate maran,Coco, one cream legbar, Mo, a leghorn, Foggy, a plymouth rock, Gin, a warren, LC, two new warren chicks and two cherry valley ducks, crispy and pancake all housed in an eglu, (the big one) with a large run but they do free range around the garden when we are about, lovely eggs, duck ones are fantastic and big. cheers everyone.Comment

That's seven Chooks, Duckdad, added to the 2644 makes a new total of 2651.

2649 - sadly a two legged thief has made off with two Orpingtons. Unbelievable, in obsessing on foxes and everything else had not even considered humans! Be a while before get more to add to the flock numbers.Comment

Have you let the police know Caldon - you must be very upset. We have a german shepherd who will eat people who go near the chickens, very probably......
2649 plus 3 black bantam thuringians - very rare and will be entered in the national this year. Stunning. the male is called Satan. guess upon his temperament................2652Comment

Yeah, police were actually very good, carried out a door to door and publicised it through social media. I had expected them to laugh it off. Can't get a dog (or geese or ducks) so getting back garden secure before source more chicks. Had Orpingtons so thinking of getting exbats as a nice thing to do and less 'desirable' for potential thieves.Comment

Ex batt's are a nice thing to do Caldan. And they are so bluddy funny! Really entertaining little things. And they lay eggs too

One bit of old folklore wisdom says to plant tomatoes when the soil is warm enough to sit on with bare buttocks. In surburban areas, use the back of your wrist. Jackie French

2659 minus Holly and ginger who died from a combination of old age and regrettably an outbreak of redmite where they were insisting of sitting on non existent eggs- all my fault - I need to be firmer with breaking broodies- but how could the red mite population escalate into the zillions in just one week whilst I was away leading trip???!!!! 2657Comment
