Do you know where I could buy permethrin dust in England? When I search it up only Diatomaceous Earth comes up. She did angrily dust bath the first two days but her dust bath got wet in the rain and I didn’t have any dry dirt to fill it up with.

If you are having trouble finding Permethrin this could be an alternative.
I haven't tried it but it is being recommended by some fairly reliable sources.

Having to look for eggs at an auction this Saturday. Closest eggs are 40 mins away and my dad isn’t happy with that lol. Means she’s been broody ish for about 2 weeks and the chicks will be a couple of days old when they fall in to the care of my nana while I go on holiday. The situation is getting a bit stressful. Would be much easier if I could keep a rooster around!
 
If anyone’s interested as to how it worked out, she took on some chicks tonight. I bought her 4. Put them under her butt in the dark. There was some pecking but it’s all quiet now so fingers crossed.
