Yategirl I'm really sorry that you have to rehome your ladies. I'm really lucky that our neighbours all sleep at the front of the house and they enjoy hearing the chickens free range. My ladies never really made much noise though.

I'm sure you could do something to help with the noise,my friend (who I will ask if she can rehome your hens) managed to keep hers from making too much noise. Is it only when they lay?

Thanks for the info on NBF going to phone them in the morning

Thank you

Yes.. only noise is when they lay and it is one particular chicken - but the noise isn't everyday either... I don't think they are noisy but when you are aware that someone has found they are noisy then you tend to be alert to every sound to try and minimise anything. Other neighbours have never said anything...

That must be so frustrating, if it's only one hen and only when laying your neighbours can't have too mauch to maon about:rolleyes:

I hope Skipton's OH can help you as it's less painful then losing your girls. I'll also ask my friend what she did.

I really do hope you can keep them

Imagine if you had a dog barkin, how much noise that would make? I think you are being too accommodating to your neighbours! Could you not offer them a peace offering of fresh eggs?
