Happy new year everyone!
Well I was cruising the carribean this Christmas and even whilst exploring such far flung shores, there were wild jungle fowl chickens to see. and hummingbirds and grackles, parakeets and not forgetting reptiles too (closest to a silkie 😉)
Not too many feathers on this guy but worth a share anyway.. 👇

Christmas has come slightly early at Bantybarn. Eight new birds entrusted to me.

It's taken me all of this year to create just the one chocolate pekin in frizzle
Just one!
Let's hope she's a good layer... 🤎🥚 🥚🥚

For all the people still currently messaging looking for birds, thank you. I might have a few popping up as I go through what is left in the coming weeks. It's been an incredibly busy year. I'll be in touch if availability changes.

For all those asking me for breeding lavender pekins male and female, I'm sorry, I don't have any more to let go at the moment. Again, I will say if that changes. Lavender has been an extremely popular colour this year.

Have a great weekend everyone

Look at the heads on those three showgirls, they look like macaroons or with some googly eyes, the cookie monster!
So excited to see what feather type they have

To anyone messaging me, I know there are ALOT of outstanding messages, I will be back on messenger next week. Maybe sooner.
I am very sorry indeed
(Other commitments have been taking priority in recent weeks taking up all my time ..)

OK pekin gang This video examples the colours in my June hatch, which makes them 11 weeks old They are too young yet to be added to an adult flock They will need their own separate accommodation to grow on For the many times I get asked for lavenders, I'm really sorry but I've had pretty nothing but cockerels hatch this season. As it currently stands I have no spare lavender pullets 😔 I'm located near Dorchester and pullets at this age are twenty shekels per bird Thank you
