sezbetz   10 #2 Posted February 27, 2010 there are lots of places you can get food and bedding from.  Pets at home sell layers pellets as do jolleys although I find both a little pricey. I use brough mill but thats way out of sheffield. For bedding you can buy shavings straw etc form most petshops or by the bale from horse feed suppliers - depends how much you are looking for.

Lotti   10 #10 Posted February 28, 2010 I should point out that I also deliver poultry food etc. but unfortunately I can't get it in as cheap as some places.  I'm happy to quote you for stuff though if you're interested - on the plus side I deliver for free but like I say, I can't buy in as cheap as some places can.

HenHugger   10 #12 Posted March 1, 2010 they eat most things but cabbage and onions aren't so good for them and potato peelings must be cooked first.  try hanging broccoli and sweetcorn, they're normally faves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
