Priorylady 10 #1 Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) Over the past 2 nights I've had 2 unused chicken coops stolen from outside my house in Southey Green. Last night the thieves broke into my chicken run and stole 2 of my chickens ( a distinctive reddy brown one and a black one - not the battery hen types that you see a lot of). they also emptied and stole my wheelie bin -presumably to transport the chickens. If you notice that your neighbours have become owners to a red rock and a block rock chicken overnight, could you let me or the police know. Many thanks ☹️ Edited March 15, 2019 by Priorylady typo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Priorylady 10 #4 Posted March 15, 2019 no, not really valuable they cost £12-15 each to buy as 18 week olds. but they are my pets, so monetary value is not the issue. It's also the violation of property and personal space, and the worry of how many will go tonight, or tomorrow night Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Sorry its happened and hope they catch the varmints . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Sorry its happened and hope they catch the varmints . to carry away the 2 coops and runs the night before (so quietly that I didn't hear anything -although it was quite windy so I might have not clocked any little noises) I suspect that this must have been adults as they are quite heavy and awkward to carry. I have very little hope of the police being able to do anything or that they will be returned Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
iansheff 88 #7 Posted March 15, 2019 (edited) Can't understand some people, why can't they make their own coop and buy a couple of hens rather than steal someone else's coops and pets. Bet a decent coop could be made for £30 and then 4 ex battery hens £20. Not easy things to carry away a couple of chicken coops they must have had a largish van, is there any cctv near to you?
