Lost Cell Phone

The BCEHS paramedics lost the company cell phone at approx.1 am on Thursday morning around the community dock.  Nobody heard a splash, so it’s probably not in the water.  If you have found it, please call the fire chief 252-0544 or the Duty Officer 252-0228.  

It is identifiable as belonging to BCEHS.  

Thank you.

Chickens

I am ready to move my flock of laying hens on to a new home. 
They are a mix of blue, brown and one black hen plus 2 roosters who should probably be split up.
They're laying around 6 eggs a day right now. 
I also have a very heavy but movable and predator resistant coop, bedding, and feed to get you started if you take all of them. 
Happy to give the layers away for free.

In addition, I will be selling 5 chicken crates and an extra-large feeder and waterer in case anyone wants to raise meat birds. I will not be doing so this year.  $200 for everything.
