*UPDATE… Rehomed 🧡*

Meet Beryl, Cheryl and Meryl!

Looking for a 5⭐️ home for these three ladies who I kept back from our last rehome as they needed some TLC. They are fully recovered now and looking for their forever home. Please read carefully as Cheryl has some specific needs...

Meryl - an egg broke inside Meryl and she was very poorly. it was a bit touch and go for a while but she is fully recovered now!

Beryl - on rehoming day poor Beryl was just terrified of everything and everyone and stood out immediately as she was being badly bullied and just cowering, it was very sad to see. Although she is still a timid hen and is definitely bottom of the pecking order, she is much happier and braver now. WARNING, Beryl is a VERY CUTE hen and will want to be your little shadow and BFF if you let her 😍

Cheryl - We think Cheryl has suffered a broken leg at some point. this is an old wound/fully healed, but it has left her with a limp. She can get about just fine and (although best avoided) can easily jump up onto things too. HOWEVER, when free-ranging with her friends, she struggles to keep up and often gets left behind. For this reason, I am looking for a set-up that:
1) doesn't have an absolutely huge free ranging area, so that she can keep up and stay in sight of the other hens.
2) I am not sure if she finds it comfortable to perch (she chooses not to here), so your housing will need to have a safe option for her to sleep sitting on a comfy flat surface.
3) If joining a flock, ideally no cockerel or only a smallish lightweight one

Let me know if you would like to offer these girls a home or have any questions.
Usual home check photos and donations apply

Another beautiful boy looking for a new flock... let me know if you can help...

Beautiful cockerel looking for new home, friendly and chatty (never shown any aggression). Doesn’t bother with dogs/cats, eats out of your hand and runs over.
He is cream leg bar x maran, he is vocal and does like to sing (won’t be ideal for someone with neighbours). Great with his hens and does like to be free range.he is fertile.
Very sad rehome as he doesn’t like my buff Orpington’s (runs them away from the mixed flock). 5* home only. Based Welshpool

*UPDATE- Walter has been rehomed*

Walter is looking for a 5⭐️ home. He's very friendly/will eat out of your hand and has lived with ducks and drakes happily showing no aggression. He will however need to go to either an all drake home or one that has larger duck breed females as he is too big for his current ladies.
Walter is a pure crested duck (but doesn't have a crest).
If you are interested let me know and I can put you in touch with his current owner, who will be very sad to see him go but knows he needs a different flock.

Does anyone have space in their flock to give one of these boys a second chance? Usual donation and home check photos apply.

Current owner says: they have had a total free range life with their girls but due to change of circumstances need new homes. Good with people, children and other animals.

Anyone rehoming on the 8th, I can arrange for the boys to be here if you are interested in adopting. Otherwise just get in touch and I can arrange collection on another dat for you.
