depends
if I have to register I'm not
have been giving them away to friends but could stop that if I had to
I'm over 50 though and can see anyone with over 50 being targetted next so might register just on the deadline Crying or Very sad

Daft question would registration still be required if say child A had 25 & child B had 25 birds? Just curious as doesn't affect me yet with my 7 & not commercial.

I could (if I had to) get mine under 50 but then I add the kids on and it's still over Sad

could i just say we're not scaremongering it's just that both deb and i have livestock and holding no's so every 2 years and inbetwen times we get forms to fill in often part of that form asks about chickens,ducks ect . so they already know who we are and where we are ,so we really have to reg because we'll be for the high jump if we don't Rolling Eyes
