Are they Rhode"s?
Yes Rhode island reds there is 6 of them i think they was hiding one. Got 2 more rescue ones since then that was been bullied in the main flock so we moved them to my garden with these. And i have no lawn left now just a mud pit after these have finished scratching about :bonk:
Blimey looks like the 7.15am to London train!
This may well be a daft question - but why keep chickens exactly??? Is it a business or a kind of pet that produces more than just turds

We have some chickens too. Its a bit of a pet thing really. You would be a long time recouperating your initial lay-out for a house, feeders, etc, etc at todays egg prices. You only get about 6 eggs a week per chicken (if you're lucky) so its perfect for your own family.
They're also superb to watch as a social entity, a bit like an aquarium in that sense. And they're not really much work, about as easy to keep as a rabbit or guinea pig really

No no no no no! Brown sauce for egg related foods, always :razz:
If your Jacks are anything like mine, anything that has fur or feathers (not including dogs as she gets on well with them) is seen as a bit of a toy. She caught a pigeon a few weeks ago!
