Help needed to rehome healthy chickens before being culled.
Can anyone help with this issue??? Mark, do you have any farmer friends who might be able to find homes for these... A FB friend posted and asked for this to be disseminated.... Best if you properly check out the legitimacy but the research I've done has come up with the same post elsewhere. What rules suggest that perfectly fine chickens have to be culled?? URGENT - Please share (copy and paste) Forwarding to anyone who might be interested, Dear All , This is a cry for help on behalf of some seriously brilliant laying Burford Brown hens! Richard Corbett has 6,000 feathered friends (free range) that have to be culled on Sunday July 5thth โ€“ purely because these are the rules when supplying Waitrose M&S etc with eggs. Iโ€™m on a mission to try and find as many homes as possible for as many hens as possible โ€“ even if its only for 1 or 10 hens. We already have five of his brood and they lay 5 eggs a day which is completely fabulous. So, if you have it in your heart to save a few feathered lives then please add your name to the list and return to me. The Collection date โ€“ which HAS to be adhered to โ€“ is July 5th. They should be collected from Richard Corbett at Dean Farm House Binley Nr St Mary Bourne, Hants. Tel: 07881783206. PLEAASE PASS THIS ON TO EVERYONE YOU KNOW

Sadly, this happens all the time, its so sad. I rescued a dozen many years ago now , they laid well and lived for years, bless them. Sadly i dont have any space for chickens these days.
Peas...
My peas this year haven't done so well.... How about everyone else?

The only good lots of peas we have had ,were some very early ones we grew in the polytunnel, they did really well. However , every other sowing has done nothing at all.

Progress in the gardens
Iโ€™ve been blessed this year to spend time in Somerset on a friends land where I am free to garden as I like Thatโ€™s allowing me to experiment a lot with permaculture, Electro culture, making fertiliser, compost teas and growing a large variety of odds and sods But all of that is great right up till you see your first tomato cucumber and melon break out Feeling like a first time dad ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ‘
