At last I have my girls

I have often read but never posted so I thought I would say Hi

I finally picked my ex-batts up on Saturday 8 lovely girls in quite good condition compared to some of the pictures I have seen....Spent most of Sunday sitting in the garden watching them. They are a fantastic stress reliver and so entertaining.

what an amazing feeling when you get the first egg I felt like a kid at Christmas.

Hi & welcome
Its wonderful that you have been able to home some ex-bats

Trouble is now that you won't have time to do anything else

If you have been lurking for a while you will know that it is essential to post some piccies.............cos we all love pics

Welcome to our world

Welcome Nicci.

Very brave to go straight for ex-batts. Well done.

If you feel like it's Christmas, just think how they feel !

....that and their birthday combined.

Welcome, it's so good to think how happy those girls will be, how did they react to the great outdoors? How long did it take for them to start scratting about?

Piccs please, if you can manage to post them.

Hello and welcome from one Nicci to another.

You have to post pics, it's the law around here

I am envious, I am still getting ready for mine (we're going to rescue some ex-bats too). Garden is ready. still in the process of building the coop.

I am excited for you tho. Keep posting and give us some pics of your girlies.

Congrats on your ex-batts and your first eggs - I agree it is like being a kid at Christmas! lol

Look forward to seeing you around the board.
