The Poultry Keeper

nigel · Posted: Mon Apr 24, 2006 7:02 pm Post subject: Help Needed to Rehome my Chickens

Things are moving fast with our move to Sweden, and we may have to go into temporary accommodation fairly soon. We had hoped that we could coordinate things so that we moved out of here and over to Sweden at the same time. This doesn’t look very likely now.

So I need some loving person to offer a home to my girls. I have

Bovans Nera, Bluebell, WhiteStar and a Silver Grey Dorking all 2 years old.
(The Meadowsweet hybrids came direct from Meadowsweet, the Dorking came from Mrs Taylor at Parvabrook Poultry)

Blue-laced Wyandotte, Gold-laced Wyandotte, Barred Plymouth Rock, Welsummer, Light Sussex, Cream Legbar and a Buff Orpington all 1 year old.
(All except Buff Orpington from Wernlas Collection, the Orp is from our very own Knobby)

This is the hardest thing I have ever to do and the saddest I have had to post in here. We are in Castle Donington (Nottingham east Midlands Airport) and we may be able to meet people halfway. I’d obviously prefer them to all to stay together, but appreciate this is unlikely.

Anyone who can help let me or Steph (Admin) know. I’m going to go and cry now.

The only "plus" at the moment is the looking forward to July and having space for a lot more than we've had, and having them all on our doorstep. I just wish there was a way of getting them there, but we just can't do it Sad
