Free laying chickens
UPDATE: we have had two offers for these chooks already, so thanks for your interest, but they have potentially been taken already!
Hi,
We have two chickens to go to a new home. They are about 2 and a half years old and laying about 10 eggs between them a week. One is a barnvelder (she has the gold feathering) and the other is an australorp (she's the dark colour, almost a paua shimmer in the light). They have never attempted to fly away and have never had their wings clipped. The barnevelder has a little sass and has pecked my kids once or twice, the australorp is a little shy and keeps out of your way. They are used to a backyard environment but i'm sure would adapt to having more friends around.
The little coop/moveable run in the background if free to you if you want it, but you don't have to take it. It was our first attempt and would probably need some modification to enable easier cleaning/access.
Feel free to ask any questions or come to see them.
Thanks,
Maria Donoghue
Poll: Do you think NZ should ban social media for youth?
The Australian Prime Minister has expressed plans to ban social media use for children.
This would make it illegal for under 16-year-olds to have accounts on platforms including TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X.
Social media platforms would be tasked with ensuring children have no access (under-age children and their parents wouldn’t be penalised for breaching the age limit)
.

Small electrical job
I have a ceramic lamp base that I’d like to be made in to a lamp. Anyone out there that can do the job?
Thank you!
