I don't know why you are thanking me for the coffee, when you left I found a jar on the kitchen table.  I rushed after you but you were gone.


I will keep it till you come with Paul :eyelashes:

Looking froward to a couple of girls, as it looks like our Marans may be all boys.  Off out to try to get still photos of them - they keep flipping moving around  :innocent:

Thank you Sue, and thank you David and the little Bloomers, anticipating that the chicks may be between Ben and  Bekka on the back seat  :roflanim:.

Hope you sell quick, and get a nice Camper, Sue and can visit us up here.  Lots of places and people to show you so you'll need at least a month! :excited: :excited:

Sue - you could just go from TASer to TASer staying a few weeks here, a few weeks there in your camper van with Phoebe - dispensing advice and wisdom to all of us in person  ;D

Thanks, will let Bloomer sort out what works for him and who gets what, but if there are any girls with my name on I'll be delighted.  I have a CL cockerel so not able to cope with boys I'm afraid and if he can hang on til he's sure and they're ready to go out in a run that would be fab.   :excited:

Reading the list it's probably as well I'm so far away and dependent on goodwill for delivery  :D

Anyone seen a good special offer sale price on sheds recently.. ??  :innocent:

If David brings them here with mine, I'll take over any for you, Ellie.  I love my veggie lunches - you might even get some quail eggs if you're lucky  :eyelashes:

Maybe we can all try to find you places to park up a mobile home, so you can see different city's etc up and down the country?


I have a huge driveway and am only a couple of miles outside Lincoln city centre  ;D   There is also a proper camp site just the other side of Lincoln in Hartsholme Park.

We would be happy to have you and Phoebe to come and stay. There's certainly plenty of room for Phoebe to run around.

DBE Sorry to see you are parting with your birds, they are a credit to you( fantastic coulored eggs!), iv'e hopefully managed to sort out some with Bloomer to keep your good work going up here in Scotland. Good luck with whatever life holds for you and enjoy the freedom of not being tied to stock :0).

okay sue


we want the 16 young marans


plus all 10 young and the cock to go with them, From various pm's and on here I have homes for them all including setting up some breeding groups in scotland


It will be nice to have helped spread the geographic locations of this stock.


From it all i get 2 Marens for my diddy flock as i really love their egg colour....


See you next week (will work out how to squeeze them all in somehow, have large cat carriers we have used for poultry in the past so will bring those with me)

Sorry to hear your news and I wish you well for the future.

missed this, been away for the weekend. I've had birds/eggs off you in the past and was very happy with them.
 
Do you have anything left? Just musing how many would make the journey doable :)

Thanks Dogwalker for the nudge :)
