Re: Allergy....aarrrgghhh!!!
Thank you Lady A and Marigold. If I don’t make any improvements with my symptoms on Beconase I will be back in touch with the GP for a referral to the respiratory team at the hospital, as I can’t go on like this every day. I do get breathless, but mainly my chest feels tight (like someone is sat on ...

Re: Allergy....aarrrgghhh!!!
Oh thank you Diane. I have some beconase and I am planning on trying that this week. I haven’t so far as I’ve been hoping it was a chest infection and that the antibiotics would clear up my symptoms but sadly not. I’ve just been looking at a company that does eco safe rubber chippings for hen houses...

Allergy....aarrrgghhh!!!
Well, lovely chicken friends, I’ve had a very eventful couple of months. It seems I’ve developed an allergy to something... assumed at first and for a good while to be hayfever, but increasingly I’m being nudged into facing the fact that it may be something chicken related :o . God forbid it be the ...

Re: Advice for run structure please!
Hi Tweety Pie and Marigold - yes, it seems I DID get them in time. The place I got them from were sold out by the following weekend, unheard of at this time of year. You don’t realise how daft folk are until something like this, do you? It’s quite worrying as places are selling out of feed, feeders ...

Re: Advice for run structure please!
Ahh, thank you big yeti man!! I seem to think I’ve read threads on here relating to tales of bedtime confusion, so it makes me feel better that others have had the same experiences! Fingers crossed tomorrow night will be smoother although apart from Ruth I was quite proud of them!!

Re: Advice for run structure please!
Bedtime update: So, amazingly, as it started to get dark, they all started to go in to the coop. Pippa, who has so far seemed the most shy and submissive, was, by far, the most focused and only went in and came back out a couple of times. Agnes, Louisa and Betty couldn’t make their minds up for a go...

I will also update you on how bedtime goes as I’m pretty sure none of them have ventured into the coop (I caught a c...
