Hardfeather 56 Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 Some brood hens are priceless, not everyone keeps £5 chickens. Well unless he's got the best Rhodies in the country which I doubt he has (otherwise he wouldn't be asking for info on here) it won't be a priceless brood hen 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Moll. 1,769 Posted July 22, 2012 Report Share Posted July 22, 2012 Don't have to be 'the best' birds for someone to want to help them. Family pet's come in all shapes and sizes 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Mez 11 Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 Thats what i was thinking Moll. They have asked for help with a health problem, not a discussion on whether other people would like to keep the breed they have or for the same reason. To be honest if something is treatable i will treat it - after all if i didnt want the animal in the first place i wouldnt bother to keep it...IMO necking a bird is sometimes the lazy option.. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Millet 4,497 Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 Too true Mez..if they can be helped they should be helped and imo culling is the last resort..would you get your dog put to sleep at the first sign of trouble..?..i very much doubt it.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Millet 4,497 Posted July 23, 2012 Report Share Posted July 23, 2012 A pet is a pet..no matter what it is..a pet chook mean's the same to the owner as a pet dog cat horse and whatever else..they are all living thing's and deserve respect and a chance in my eye ball's..don't get me wrong i have culled my fare share of pet's over the year's..not something i would boast about but like i say everything deserve's a chance instead of going for the easier cheaper option of culling..
