We sell beautiful point of lay hybrids and a selection of pure breed point of lay hens. We also breed our own rare breeds including the very rare Silver Deathlayers, Groninger Meeuwen (large fowl and bantam), Swedish Flower Hens, Silverudds Blå, Hedemora, Pavlovskaya and Cream Legbars. We sell these as chicks, growers and point of lay during the season and can supply hatching eggs during spring and summer months. We often have Golden Giant and Celadon quail available.
hybrid hens
We usually have a large selection of hybrids available. These are our most popular birds and are bred for optimum egg laying ability so are perfect for keepers wanting plenty of eggs without keeping too many birds. Hybrids now come in many attractive colours and egg colours include white, tinted, brown, blue and green.
