2 are bantams approx 2 years old and have stopped laying now
2 are ex-battery rescue hens approx 18 months old and have stopped laying now
we really need to get a couple more bantams. I would recommend bantams they are quieter, less bossy and don't shit everywhere. The ex-batts do bigger shits than my dog.
they eat proper chicken food, it's not that expensive, we have a massive sack of the stuff that lives in the shed.
I've wanted chickens for ages, this is the reason my OH vetoes the idea... Thanks for the tip, I really love some of the fancy breeds so would go that way rather than ex-batt...
I hve 4 chickens currently
