Hello,


I have two lovely pet chickens and was wondering if anyone else had chickens in the area? My neighbours are great, and look after them while we are on hols. But I am on the look out for a fellow chicken keeper, just in case we are ever away at the same time or so they might have someone to contact if they have any questions while we are away. Ours live in an Eglu and I would really recommend them as a pet - fresh eggs every day, Mmmmm!!!

The unusual pet thread about chickens is my boyfriend :-)


You don't need masses of space to keep just a couple of chickidees. I was thinking of asking Dog Kennel Primary school round the corner if they wanted to watch them for a week if we go away. Thought it could be a fun project for the kids, but didn't really figure in parental paranoia on bird flu. Maybe not sure a great idea....

don't let PGC near your chickens, he's no safer than a priest near small boys.

Hi,


I got four chickens a few months back and just as they all started laying, a fox got 3 of them. i was gutted, especially as it was my fault, I'd forgotten to put the cover to the run back on in the evening. I got another 3 and have made sure I locked tham back up each evening and they seem to be doing fine. My dog seems to keep the foxes away during the day and both him and my kitten get on great with the chickens.


They are brilliant and really funny so yes I think everyone should get some!

    • Hi, hoping for a bit of help from the forum hive mind so thanks in advance.... Our property on Barry Rd was included in the External Major works that took place in 2022 (Dulwich Externals QHIP 19/20 Street Properties).  Recently we have discovered that Saltash, the contractors who carried out the work, basically patched and painted instead of fixed or replaced rotten window frames and didn't do anything to the cracked brick work which has now caused a bad case of damp in our property. Does anyone whose property was included in the works have information of any warranty or guarantee of work that was promised by Saltash or the council? As we moved in just before the work took place we weren't privy to the original communications around the work and I'd like to know where we stand before approaching the council to get it fixed..  Thanks!
    • used to love Meson don felipe with the funny guitarist who used to climb up and play on a podium, still a nice lively atmosphere and we still pop in if at the young vic but there's a lot better Spanish eateries near Borough market which is closer to the Tate too. Barrafina, Brindisa (though neither are cheap) and a few weeks ago we tried one called Parrillan, where they bring a little grill to your table and you cook your own tapas - this one certainly ticks the box for quirky but the portions are small so the bill can mount up.
