:2431: you cant eat your pet chucks

Their no pets their xmas dinner.......

poor mites


Mine will die here we will grow old together

My mum might be having about 5 chickens delivered on saturday She wanted to get them last year and even got a fenced off area and hutch thing ready but never got round to actaully getting them, but apparantly a friend of a friend has died so his chickens need a home and mum was more than happy to say yes.
Only problem i dont like birds and guess who will be looking after them nearly every weekend over the summer when mum and dad are away.

Im worried about what Viva will be like with them, they will be fenced off but knowing Viva she'll find a way to get them

you don't like birds, not gonna be easy then Steff


Hope Viva is fine with them

i no what u mean steff,i have never done birds,it was my oh who wanted the chucks but now i love them,trust me u will2,(eventually)

They are lovely and the sound they make is like a gentle cooing i find it very relaxing and they are soft and nice to pet.... Im still gonna eat then though....lol

Not keen on getting too close to birds ever since my Gran's budgie got stuck in my hair when I was about 4! :2431:


My friend's son keeps chickens. They live on a farm so they (the chickens, that is!!) have a large shed all to themselves. He has 8, 3 different breeds. He can recognise all the different breeds by sight and knows which type of hen has laid the eggs!!

And he's only four years old!!


They have the run of the yard once all the horses are worked and then Barney rounds them up as soon as it starts to go dark.

On one occasion Kia chased them all round the yard and we spent about two hours looking for one by torchlight. Gave up in the end and left it to the mercy of the foxes but it turned up safe and sound next morning fortunately

run chicken runnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn

Well my mum had her chickens delivered today, piccy on my fb, can't put link as I'm on my iPhone and haven't quite worked that out yet lol
they are actually very sweet, just as long as they don't chase me or flap at me lol
so far viva hasn't been too bad she just stared at them till thy got to close then she jumped up at the fence lol

Aww that's great Steff is she chuffed? I am well excited

Mine haven't come yet hopefully we will have them tomorrow

Steff's mom's chickens



Lovely, chuck chuck chuck

Aww Dont forget your pics tomorrow Sange.

If they come Jan am wondering if this guy will bring them as he hasn't got back to us

Awww,hope you get them hun,youve been so looking forward
to them coming.Cant you phone him.?

He said he will drop them off on the weekend, we still have tomorrow

:hi: cant wait for piccies

Cheers sandra. She loves them, she so happy.
Hope yours arrive today it's a shame your so far the person we got ours from dads died and they were his, there's another 60 needing homes.

Aww what a shame

Wonder if Debbie or Hilary know people who would like them

I think a farmer is willing to take all for a farm if they aren't all gone by monday so that's good.
Mum just sent me a pic message of the first egg lol

i would of defo took them but too far 2travel,a lot of them die in transit if they travel too far ,i just love um
