Go for it best move we ever made, cost next to nowt to feed or look after, always pleased to see you and like I said..... best damn eggs I ever had :clap

Build a damn big run cause the bar stewards will wreck your garden if you let them forage.
We've had our for six months now and i'd recommend keeping them to anyone but if you have a nice garden it wont stay that way.

Glad to see we have chicken friends here:thumbs
I keep over 200 all in different pens over 6 acres
The turkeys have taken to riding on the t2 to do the feed run am and pm:lol

Eggs are splendid
So if you want to start keeping them and need some help just ask .

I wanted to get 3 last year in the garden. Mrs H said no.

You need a good size garden to keep chickens they will turn it to mud in a short space of time
An allotment with a shed would be fine:thumbs
chickens are a great way to chill out just watch the pecking order its life in a pen:thumbs

 

[jims-terrano]

There's only one thing puts me off. I don't know if I could kill one for the pot or mercy. Guess that makes me a chicken:doh
