Looking for something a bit more unusual? We also stock some pure breed large fowl and bantam birds. We hatch the following birds during the spring and summer months
Buff Orpintons
Buff Orpingtons have very laid back personalities and make great pets. The original Orpingtons, the Black, was developed in England in 1886. The Buff is a colour variation of that breed. They are average layers and like most pure breeds they tail off during winter months. They are very popular for their large, fluffy looks and their gentle nature.
£30.00 each
Cream Legbars
this breed was created from barred rock, brown leghorn and Araucana chickens. The breed was developed in the 1930’s. This breed is an “auto-sexing” breed which means the chicken can be sexed from hatch as the males and females look distinctively different. This hen is popular as 75% of Legbar hens lay a blue/green egg. Our hen is a proven coloured egg layer, which passes a higher chance of her offspring also laying the coloured egg. Many people like a diversity of coloured eggs from their hens. She is a light bird, but lays around 200 eggs per year.
£25.00 each.
Silver Sebright
The Sebright is one of the true bantams. That means there is no standard (Larhe) version of the breed. The breed was developed by Sir John Sebright early in the 1800s and has the distinction of being the only breed of chicken named for an individual. This breed is very popular for its eye-catching appearance and gentle nature.
£25.00 each
