I know where Spalding is, I'm from Kent originally myself, (bit far to travel now) as i live in the country side in Somerset now, so i will look in Mole valley farmers, but will also look on ebay as suggested. Thank you for the suggestion though
i thought i was prepared for all this but they were the first 2 i hatched and we tried our best, but had to go to the vets as neither myself or hubby could face doing it ourselves.
i really didn't think i would get upset over having a chick put to sleep! But realise that they are just as much fun to keep as cats and dogs, and they are all my babies.
I read a thread on here earlier about no turning back as soon as you let a chicken into your heart How true those words are!
