Pure Breeds / Large Fowl
Please note this page does not show live stock quantity, if you are travelling far , we recommend emailing us to check stock
Our pure breed poultry season runs between April/May to October. During this time we usually have a great selection of pure breeds & Large fowl to choose from. Our selection includes a variety of, Brown, White & Blue egg laying chickens. The birds we have for sale are 'Point of Lay' this is the term that means the bird is approaching the age where she will be old enough to lay eggs. All of our pure breeds are all vaccinated ,wormed & mite treated before purchased.
Pure breeds will always breed true, the young will resemble the parents, they are usually for show rather than egg production. Pure breeds will therefore, not lay as may eggs as the hybrid hens. This may not be important to those who are just wanting a few birds in the back garden for pets, but it is important to know this if you require egg production. Depending on the breed type most pure breeds will lay around 80-200 eggs a year
Due to high demand we recommend contacting us before make a special journey to avoid disappointment. Some of our rare pure breeds are available to pre - order due to very small availability
