Our Buff Barred hen lays 300 brown eggs in her first year.
She's a lovely little red hen, with creamy colours throughout her feathering, often one one or two black feathers in her tail and wing tips. Confident and inquisitive, she is also a fantastic layer.

Our Light Sussex Star hen lays 280 brown eggs in her first year.
She is a very attractive, sparkling white bird with black feathers at her collar, tail and wing tips. Quite heavy and traditional looking with a docile, laid-back nature.

"I've been thinking of getting chickens for years!"
This is something we hear all the time. No need to put off any longer. Chickens are just as easy, if not more so, than any other pet and you have the bonus of all those lovely eggs!

Birds still in stock right now..

Our Bluebell hen lays 280 brown/pink eggs in her first year.
A blueish, greyish, purplely ball of feathers, a powder puff on legs! Her colouring ranges from light to dark but all are a beautiful colour. She’s very friendly too.

Who's been busy egg painting?
Egg rolling is one of Scotland's most beloved Easter traditions. Painting your hardboiled egg, followed by running after your colourful creation as it hurtles down a hill, is a highlight of the holiday!

Pure white shelled eggs from our White Star & Partridge hens are perfect for the job.

Our White Star hen lays 300 Pure white eggs in her first year.
She only little but she's sparky and she lays beautiful pearly white eggs just as big (if not bigger) than her larger chums. A very reliable layer and although she's unlikely to want to sit on your knee she is still one of my favourites.
