Title: Wonky needs a home
Post by: Sharondp on November 17, 2010, 11:29:39 am
Due to selling up and moving on, I am very reluctantly having to rehome my chickens  :(

I am selling most of them, giving away cockerels, but Wonky is very special and I'm looking for a special home for her.

She is a LF Buff Orpington and is the hen pictured in my profile pic - she is 18 months old. She is called Wonky as she has wonky feet - her toes curl inwards, so she needs regular toenail clipping as she can't scratch them down herself. I was given her by a friend at POL so she's been with me for about a year. I'm not sure if her feet are genetic or just deformed, but she hasn't run with the cockerel in case it is genetic.

She's a brilliant broody and an excellent mum, and I'm looking for a special home for her where she can run free range and be happy. I will rehome her with one of her siblings so she's not on her own.

If you can give Wonky (& friend) a loving home, please message me - I'm in Ross on Wye and can deliver within a reasonable distance if required (please have tissues ready!)

Thanks
Sharon
