Hello from New Zealand :)

Hi Sue and welcome to our community. I hope that you enjoy your time here. There's quite a few threads on ex-batts - just use the search function and you should find them.

This is a useful link of BYC guides to take a look at announcements-feedback-issues-guides.3 I’d suggest including your location using the guide in that link, if you have not already done so.

Best wishes

Hello, and welcome! Good luck with the hens. Is it hard to keep your cats from trying to eat your rats, or did you have to train them as kitten's not to? I loved those Hobbit movies, and think that you have some beautiful scenery over there in your country!
Have to be fairly diligent knowing where all the animals are at any given time - I kind of let the rats out and about. There has only been a couple of times when a rat and cat have come across one another unexpectedly, but I have been close enough to deter :) Have had rats since 2007. Not very long lives 1-3 years :( Two died this year.
Thank you for complimenting our scenery. ODd on LOTR thats why I could never get into Game of Thrones :)

Glad that you joined here, and good luck with your chickens and animal's! Are you in spring over there now as I am in fall/autumn over here?

Yep, in Spring. The rain started about 6.30ish this evening (I was at work). It was sunny earlier today - had the girls out for the first time for about 3 hours. When I got home from work I gave them about half a dozen worm farm worms each. They were up on their perches :)
 
Hi Sue and welcome (from an Aussie in France!) :frow:frow:welcome I started with 3 last Christmas and now have 18 :eek:
Hi PouleChick,
Thank you for the welcome.
Maximum in the area of Lower Hutt I am in is 3 chickens, no roosters. Am glad I did end up with 2 as hutt and run not that big - see pic.
