No. You'll be getting light sussex
(She wants to go to a farm to look at chickens this w/e! See if she's happy with them in the garden)
No, I have a right rag tag bunch. Get 2 light sussex and one silkieIt's not just down to me unfortunately... I bet she goes: I want one of them! I want one of them!!
Are there many probs mixing breeds? I'm probably going to get 3.
I've got some chickens that I got just because they're pretty. Everyone does it. The one good thing about silkies is they have feathered feet so they won't fuck up your garden. Did you take up that persons offer of getting the details of the next auction? You'd fucking love it. I bet Moonpig would too.
You think you'd have had enough of that.I want the one that runs after you when you ignore her too! http://www.goldenvalleypoultry.co.uk/theBreed.htm The Golden
Yes it is
Don't be sucked in by the gimmicky site or I shall reserve the right to call you a fucking townie.
You know I'm rightok mum
Probably. Rhodies are a big bird. Probably too big for what you want really. I assume the missus won't be wanting table birds (yet)? Ixy seems to know what those birds are like, ask her.
She'd know the difference instantlyWhat she don't know can't hurt her
She'd know the difference instantly
Bantams are just small chickens, they're not all silkies.
No. It tastes nothing like shop bought chicken. It's quite gamey.
We don't hang them, they go straight in the freezer. I think it's breed dependent. Our eaters are usually all crosses but crosses from old breeds. Shops want fast growing breeds.
I don't want to get a chicken just cos it looks cute, Moonpig might though
I didnt ask no, but its not been any issue at all! They dont make alot of noise, its the cockerells which cause issues with crowing. I need to clean up a bit at the mo cos theyve wrecked my garden and it smells a bit now its hot. Im not sure how much is down to the chooks cos I also have bad drains
Yes my chicken house has a roof this is it
But mines a bit small so Im building them a run to go with this this week... if you can, give them as much space as possible. I was happy to let them roam until I realised just how much damage they caused, they really do eat EVERYTHING thats green, they also dig holes, throw soil and stones everywhere and so on....its not good, either have a complete garden you devote to them and their domain/damage or build a run! They put themselves to bed at night and thats the time to feed/water them if you want to do it without getting pecked endlessly!
