Lyra, Oggs, Berrie, Zeb and Binkle....OVER HERE!!!!

[binkleandflip]

Do you know if there poo could be harmful to the rabbit at all?

Our run is 2m by 4m. It's on the slabs to stop the fox digging its way in. It's covered so they don't get any contact with wild birds when they are in there. I don't think there is much of a risk.
I don't think the fox will bother getting over a 9 foot wall but it might get in via a gate?

Don't know...I use the Practical Poultry forum for advice...will get you some links..

Practical Poultry

gates are big too. I'm fairly ok about the security aspect, rabbit has lasted this long anyway and I have been known, on occasion to forget to put him away at night if I've been out and also, one night, staggered up the garden very drunk at around 3am to put him away and actually locked him out instead lol. His own fault for pretending to be a rock

Poshest type of house and run

thanks for the link

coo they're expensive!!

Yes you can get much cheaper wooden ones.

I was just thinking of getting them a little house and letting them roam about as long as they dont affect the rabbit they can stay out all day with him.

That sounds fine...ebay has lots of little houses.

Perhaps I better concentrate on all the shop stuff first then get on to chickens after. I have just spent a further 1.5k on products, uniforms and training. Its a dear do for sure

You'll havee to sell one of the hydraulic stools to raise funds Binkle.

I'm glad your mum will be able to go home soon. Hope she's feeing more comfortable. Sorry if this is in bad taste but your post made me laugh...the bit when your mum "got up in the night to go to the toilet and passed an occupied body bag in the ward corridor".
I'm not passing anything at the moment. Bloody diet

So I'll be the only one without chickens?
I'll get me coat too.

I have a spare cockerel. I can post him to you if you'd like Lyra .

Lol Oggs, sometimes you've got to laugh though havent you!! Just been to see mum, much more sprightly so should be discharged after weekend.

I'm just worried about getting raggy looking ones, I want to help but I'm useless at dealing with stuff like that.

I left a message for you on the lowcarb thread Oggs

Here I am. If it's so good why are you getting rid Binkle?

Glad your Mum is feeling more herself again.

Get retty ones then

pretty

Glad to see you back to your real name Berrie

So. What's everyone doing today?

Are you working Lyra?
Zeb, you and cows really don't get on do you?
Berrie, is it the allotment for you? If not, what?
Binkle, get your bum over here and discuss cartons and cookbooks.

Pretty miserable here. Overcast and cold.

Morning, yes grotty day here too.

Really should go to the allotment. I have seeds to plant and the grass has grown really really long. Dh is desperate to mow down the bluebells but I won't let him. How long would you let them set seed?

Ooh, I don't know. Do you collect the heads for the seed, or do they just self-seed. in which case you'd have to leave them a lot longer.
I love bluebells, but we don't have any at all on our land .
It's bloody cold. I'm going to have to light the fires today.
