Alice Goodman the chick brooder you so kindly purchased for us has arrived. We now have one at Steve’s, one at the sanctuary and a spare to lend to our chick fosterers.
We’re now very well prepared for any more little Mikey’s.
Thank you so much ❤️

Look how much Mikey has grown!
Sarah and her family have now been caring for him for one week 😊
Its hard to believe this beautiful and active little baby was gassed and frozen 😢
What a tough little boy he must be 🥰

Update - Thank you so much everyone, Ryan Gosling now has enough money in his carrot fund for several nets! 😁❤️👍
We have just one carrot left in the net 😳 and our geese like one each a day to crunch on.
If anyone is thinking of buying us a gift from our Amazon Wish List, could you please consider sending us £3.50 instead, to buy a net of carrots from Wynnstay?
This would make Ryan Gosling very happy 😁
Our PayPal is
[email protected] and a net lasts them about 3 weeks 😊

The little stray lad who arrived yesterday evening, is doing well.
He’s taking all his meds and eating and drinking. He likes sweetcorn alot!
I hope the pain relief is helping, he mostly sits, so i presume he’s still uncomfortable on his little stumps.
We are very grateful to his kind rescuer, Robin, who caught him, kept him safe, and brought him to us ❤️

I was saying to Rob earlier, that every time there’s a named storm, we take in another stray and we name them after that storm, Jocelyn, Bert, Darragh for example.
So this afternoon, as we were preparing for Storm Eowyn, we heard about a stray cockerel found under a car this morning.
He arrived at Lowveld this evening.
He has a very severe case of scaley leg, which must have gone untreated for some considerable time, because he has sadly lost most of his toes, and he gets about on his little stumps.
His poor little feet are hot and inflamed and infected.
We started treatment immediately, and hopefully we can get him more comfortable and pain free quickly.
This poor boy was found 5 minutes from where our Reece and Tom were found as strays back in 2019. I wonder what the chances are of them being related to each other.
Please send this little lad some healing thoughts. He needs them.

Little Hei Hei always shreds my gloves when im serving his breakfast!
Now he has to suffer the consequences of his actions, which is to be kissed and cuddled in front of his ladies 😁

The word has got round.
There’s a queue this morning for the sweetcorn shelf nest box 😁
These are two different hens than the two yesterday!

Catherine has been laying her egg on this bare shelf for a few days now, so I’ve put some straw there this morning to make it more comfortable for her 😁

In just 9 days time it will the Raptor’s 1st Birthday! 🥰🎂👍
I can remember my utter astonishment, that day in January 2024, when Rob and I went out with our net during storm Jocelyn, to catch a reported injured chicken, who was sat on the concrete path at the top of an old lady’s garden.
As we got to the hen, a little raptor chick’s head poked out from under the hen’s feathers 😳 followed by another 😳 and then another 😳.
Of course you probably know that Jocelyn hen successfully hatched 2 more chicks back at Lowveld, and reared the 6 strapping lads we know and love today ❤️
These boys have given us immense pleasure, and so many laughs this past year, and its been our absolute privilege to care for them.
We are planning a Birthday party of course! 😁🥳

Baby Mikey is doing well, he’s eating and drinking ( and pooing lots 😊) and Sarah is keeping a very close eye on him.
It’s difficult to imagine how someone so tiny and fragile, managed to survive such an horrific ordeal.

We have received these supplies from our friends at Animal Rescue Volunteers, which were purchased with money they raised from calendar sales last year.
These guys work so hard all year round raising money for places like ourselves, and we really appreciate it 🥰

Update - Harriet has very kindly now purchased one for us, you wonderful people never cease to amaze me with your kindness ❤️
We keep getting caught out when we need our brooder plate for chicks.
When i need it, it’s in Birmingham, at Steve’s, and you can guarantee when he needs it, its with me!
It means we are wasting valuable time travelling about, when we have a vulnerable young chick/s who needs a heat source asap.
We have tried to manage with 1 plate, but I’m asking if anyone would be willing to buy us another, so we always have one at each location.
The price is £28.99 (eek!) which is the sole reason we haven’t already purchased another.
If anyone can help, you would need to message me for our address please, as this item is not available as a gift through the wish list.

Sarah has named him Mikey 🥰
It’s early days, but he’s doing ok so far.
Apparently the exact same thing happened 3 weeks ago, but sadly that chick died soon after this kind person tried to save him 😢
