Kitchen Garden Forum

I have just finished cleaning my chicken house out.I will spray it all inside tomorrow ready for my twenty new hens I am getting on Saturday, you will be alright for fresh eggs next week OH.

Do i still just keep collecting them before you get up.

What hens are you getting Old Codger? Specials or Heinz 57? And what happened to the old ones......?

I get the new chickens from a free range poultry farm they only keep them for so long then they sell them for £1-50 each. I only had 8 old ones left so I sent them to Kentucky Fried Chicken

Nice to see OH's "handler" back on here

That sounds a bargain. Mine never seem to get to the 'old bit' what with feral cats and the odd fox. Hope they lay well for you.

Evening Codger, what time are you picking the birds up?

Hi OH. I have got to be there for 9' o clock.be back about 9- 30.could you please give me a hand to carry the crate down to the run thank you,hope it's not raining.

Consider it done, Codger, i'll wander over at 9.30 am. And as for the weather, it's going to be fine and quite mild.

I wonder if you will get any eggs tomorrow.

Are we taking bets on two in the crate?

Don't you think you should keep discussion of what time you are picking up free ranging birds private?

It won't make any difference in our neck of the woods,two smart young lads like us.

I think the word,"smart" might be pushing it a little.

I think a more appropriate word would be "cunning".

Could you imagine having a plot close to OH & OC boy it would never ever be dull that's for sure I reckon they make a fine pair of chicken rustlers
