No...getting house and equipment sorted first and then we can sort out what we are going to have.

Do you keep chooks?

they are silly money tho Jem...they look brill, but I couldnt justify £300 for them. And TBH I dont think you get a lot of space in them either

How exciting, I really hope you get it. We have chooks, four at present, they make such fantastic pets, no matter what we heard or read before we got out girls, nothing prepared us for just what amazing personalities they would have!

They are also quite small.... I was surprised at how small they are when I first saw one in real life...

I've had wooden coops of varying designs for 5 years now, wouldn't ever want an egloo!

I just wanted a bright pink one in the end my ex made me one, I went for peking bantams as they are small and quite sociable, anything bigger would have freaked me out a bit though lol x

nah, it wont stay nice...I have three dogs anyway, so nice isnt probably the right word LOL.

I think Bantams might be the best bet for us, 4 would be nice...Just need to explain to Kerrie that my chooks are not dinner!
