Bloomer, I would love to see your car full of the chicks  :)
I am sure everyone will love what you have for them.

I once gave a young cockerel to friends you took it back from Scotland to the south-east coast of England in a box. It crowed all the way back and they were getting funny looks from other drivers.  :roflanim:

Try a goat in season, if you have to stop at a petrol station! Especially if you are using a white van for your goat-travel....

I met up with Bloomer at Abington services on the M74.   The car was very well packed with children and chicks  ;D
 
We are now the proud owners of four little chicks, which are safely tucked under the broody, who is purring to them.  She doesn't seem to have noticed that her new brood appeared out of thin air, as there were no eggs under her  ::)
 
Thank you thank you thank you Bloomer - and the whole family  :wave:

Nice to meet you all yesterday.  What a lovely family. 


Good luck with the chooks, hope I have weeded out as many cockerels as possible but it is difficult with the Marans and also most folk are saying it is a cockerel year, but fingers crossed for you all  :fc:
