Hi All,

      Went to carlisle and bought more than i needed, the prices were well low, three POL welsummers £30 and three POL light Sussex £22,
       was most amused recognised a poultry breeder that was at longtown a few months back where their birds went for very high prices, so this time they slapped big reserves on all their stock and it never sold their face was a picture, greed seemed to play a major part.
        The trouble is I only went to get 2 lavender araucana, never got them so will have to go to another auction.
         I have spent all day building a larger chicken shed much to OH amusement, she thinks their house is better than ours  :D :wave:
