Hi Sicknote,

I would be very interested in taking both some Ducklings and Chicks, I'm going to ask a cheeky question first  :-\ I don't move onto my place until mid to late July, are you in a hurry to part with them? If you don't mind hanging on to some I would happily pay now and pay you a bit for keeping them a few weeks, wouldn't want to see you out of pocket.

If you need them gone. I'm pretty sure I could sort a temp holding up here at home got a good size garden. Sorry to be so damned awkward, just thought I would ask all the same.

I'm fairly close to you the other side of Bridgwater, just to confuss things further the trucks blown a core plug and I need to book it in next week, so motorbike at the moment and truck for short stints plus plenty of water containers lol, can still get to you if needs be.

Cheers

Hi, thanks for the reply. If you can let us know how many of each you wanted then we can set them to one side for you. We can hold them until the middle of July but if you wouldn't mind paying for them now then that would be good as unfortuntaely we have been let down in the past (not suggesting you would but once bitten and all that)

If you are the other side of Bridgwater then we can always arrange to meet or even bring them to you once you are ready (which ever is easier)
