FERRETBOY 680 Posted March 24, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 I am capable of living on little and saving for the things i need. Lots of money is great but your outgoings end up being more as well. I know that job was a great opportunity but would have cost me £50 a week in petrol. I needed to give 4 weeks notice otherwise i would have lost 2 weeks pay. Plus i didn't have a car at the time after the crash and was saving to buy another. At my current job I walk to work, i save money on food because i get discount and my hours give me plenty of opportunity to do the things i enjoy, i was working 2-10pm. I had the evening to go lamping and the mornings to go ferreting. Plus i was taking £800 a month back then too. i was in a comfortable position until they reduced our hours to contract ones. Mine is 16, i can get 20 with overtime at a push. Now im looking for full time work, if you see anything . let me know and i will take it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

forest of dean redneck 11,190 Posted March 24, 2015 Report Share Posted March 24, 2015 Just to get back on topic,I did wonder if the first 2 was araucana cross. If your going to pay that much,and to make amends take them to a poultry place ,let them choose 4 pure breeds ,sack of feed etc,then pay the bill,or help make better hen house ,point out that fox could done just the same. Times like this just got to be adult about it. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

BGD 6,385 Posted March 25, 2015 Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 (edited) You're pissed they didn't have the chickens penned in? It's your dog that got out. You're blaming them for not protecting their chickens from an out of control dog trespassing on their land? Give your head a shake ffs Edited March 25, 2015 by BGD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FERRETBOY 680 Posted March 25, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 25, 2015 (edited) Trespassing on there land that they haven't secured off properly. There was gaps in the hedge which I wasn't aware of, they have only moved in to the property (few months) so don't you think it is there responsibility to take care of making it a safe space for there chickens before having them?

No, it's your responsibility to keep your fecking dog off their land! Why didn't you make sure the yard was secure before letting your dog off and leaving it unsupervised? Their yard was obviously secure enough to keep their chickens from wandering, it was your out of control mutt that found a way on to their land. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Been watching this topic with interest.........why do some folk have such a chip on their shoulder when it comes to saying " i f****d up " ??.............If you thought they was in the wrong you wouldnt of compensated them........just take it on the chin like a proper chap should theres nothing wrong with making a f**k up as long as you learn from it. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FERRETBOY 680 Posted March 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 I compensated them because it was my dog involved so I do take responsibility plus I wanted to keep the peace between neighbours BUT lol they should have used chicken fencing after losing one chicken that crossed GARDENS into my cousins and was killed by his pup as well. I think the rest of the chickens had learnt there lesson and just stayed within there own area but the owner should have used fencing knowing the risks he was facing with an unsecure garden. it was only a matter of time before a fox or cat would have done the same. It was just a freak accident and as far as I was aware the garden was safe otherwise I wouldn't have left them unsupervised. I had forgot the chickens next door.

FERRETBOY 680 Posted March 26, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 26, 2015 Lovely lurch Mochara, i honestly cant think of a anywhere that keeps chickens within 10 miles of my place so it has never been an issue. if i was to hunt around chickens then i would use that time to get them used to them. Anyway the situation is now sorted and these lot can stop bitching. i only wanted to know the breeding and price of such birds lol. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
