Well BIG thanks to chooknewbie coz Gerry, my white Campbell drakelet has a new home. I'm taking him up to Doncaster and his new lady friend tomorrow so I don't have to worry about his emerging Oedipus complex!!! :oops:
Going to miss him but just TOO many drakes (even for my increasing number of girls ).

Great news !
He'll be a happy bunny (or ducky) now.  

You should have organised a South Yorkshire meet while you were there.

Could have got all the Donny, Rotherham and Sheff members.

[too many girls]

but, but, what about me?

[Kate and her Ducks]

Well there's still time. We could all descend on chooknewbie's allotment en masse . I'm getting there for about 1pm. Anyone who wants horseradish let me know, I'm digging a load up for Vicky as its taking over :shock:

[chooknewbie]

lmao.... there be so much in the car you wont have room for gerry!!...His female friend wont be there til a bit later in the week cos i have to get across to the farm to get him...and there is no way i taking the kids across else i will never get away!!!!! (little lad lovvvvves tractors...john deer mad!) so think i will pop across tues....he be ok til then? get him settled in, and make sure he the boss an all....?

[poultrygeist]

Don't forget your camera for the tearful waving of hanky shot  :cry:

[Kate and her Ducks]

He should be OK till tues but they are not happy animals by themselves at all. Glad he is going to have a friend soon. Think he will be a bit traumatised to begin with as he is a bit highly strung but absence making the heart grow stronger and all that :?

[chooknewbie]

if you think it would be better i can try and organise him a ladyfriend sooner....would just mean browbeating my hubby into swinging by the farm sat night??...would have to check with him and the farmer but if you think it would be best??

[Kate and her Ducks]

Don't know what for the best. Know that when he was by himself after his siblings were killed he was really distressed but he was only 2 weeks old at the time. Not sure what he will be like now but I think they really need company but sure he would get over it if he had to spend a couple of days alone. Really grateful for all you have done already, wouldn't want you to have to run the gauntlet of child tractor obsession :oops:

[chooknewbie]

lmao..i wouldnt be...my OH works about 5 mins from farm so he would pick her up and take her straight to Gerry...just have to organise it with farmer and Gerrys new dad... shouldnt be too hard to sort if you would be happier with that....want you to be happy with everything, and of course gerry....

[Kate and her Ducks]

KNow Gerry would be happier with company :?

[chooknewbie]

ok...will get it sorted....*S*....

[poultrygeist]

They do seem to be wooses when they're alone  :roll:

Hope it all goes smoothly. Good luck to both of you and Gerry.
