Shadrach's Ex Battery and Rescued chickens thread.

[Perris]

Perris, if you end up with chicks may I suggest Mumbles as a Welsh place that would make a good name for a chook? It'd be especially amusing for a cockerel

That's brilliant! and a hoot!

You can tell that these 3 are up to something, and the other 2 are thinking about it

a-ha!

it's a dust party on the lawn!

well hopefully that'll collapse the mole tunnels at least

'Free your chickens' should be my slogan!

I will steal it if I have a chance to change mine.

I changed mine once to natural, but cant see how to change that anymore. A request to one of the managers can do wonders. @Kiki

Or you can add it in your signature. But people on a mobile don’t see that in portrait.

Tintin is bigger now than his momma.
The photo doesn’t show but trust me he really is bigger. 9 weeks and still sleeping with mamma Pearl in a nest box, next to the 2 broodies. Eggs are all growing

Black and Ini mini both came down from the nest to eat, drink and poop. Black also gobbled up some layer feed.

Only some phones don't show the signatures in portrait mode.
Mine does show signatures. I believe it is the smaller screened phones that don't show the signatures.

Are you still getting visited by the vandals?

Are you still getting visited by the vandals?

Unfortunately yes, but the winged variety. I would like to be able to report they are angels but again unfortunately they're crows. They pull seeds and starter plants out, find out they're not to their taste and drop them elsewhere.
The onions are recovering well. I put in another row. The beetroot got redistributed by the crows. I've found 19 of the twenty I planted. They'll have to grow where they are and I'll try and fill in the gaps with something.
Not being a drinker I'm a bit put out at the thought of someone saying "he had to be drunk when he sowed that lot."
