Having a very good temperament and being an excellent layer, this is a good all-round bird and a great beginners bird too.

One of the friendliest birds you could own.

Available Now!  £16  

Out of all the birds we supply, the blues are always in high demand with their stunning smokey grey plumage.

These are quite a large bird, but could be described as 'gentle giants' as they have a placid nature. 

Taking orders for mid October       £16

These are very popular birds partly because of the brilliant green & blue sheen of their plumage and could be described as a good all round bird.

They look pretty, lay lots of eggs and are very robust and reliable.

This is the bird which gets recognised the most due to it's close links with the Light Sussex.

The black hackle and tail feathers look great against the white plumage. Another good 'all round' bird.

This bird is made up using the opposite cross of the one above.

It has the same character, just a different colour. They are a joy to have around having such a friendly nature. Some have brown specks on their plumage such as this one, others are a creamy white colour.

Being the opposite of the bird above, i.e. black plumage with white neck feathers, this birds is based on another of the Sussex; this time the Silver Sussex.

Great looking bird - always popular.

Having the reputation of being a slightly scatty and flighty bird the Fenning White (White Leghorn) is not everybody's choice. However once in lay she not only calms down but lays beautiful pure white shelled eggs.

This bird does really well in free range conditions  

Having close links with the well known Rhode Island Red, this is the bird for many people. She is extremely friendly and has a lovely dark red plumage with black tail feathers.

A prolific layer.  

Taking orders for mid October   £16

Looking similar to the Marans and laying darker eggs than most, the Fenning Cou Cou is a good choice with her speckley appearance.

A great addition to any flock.

Taking orders for mid October       £16

We also stock another hen called the Heritage Skyline. This bird now comes in many different colours and their tempermenet has been greatly improved upon meaning they fit in so much better in a mixed flock than they used to. These lay lovely blue/green eggs and are proving very popular.
