leopard Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 I'm desperately looking for breeders of Pekin bantums in Gloucesteshire. I've got my new green cube and are ready to go , all I now need are the bantums!!! I'm happy to travel a bit but can't seem to find anyone who has any. Any help would be great. Thanks Holly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happybunny Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Hi, I had the same problem as you until recently: I was dying to get some pekin hens ( I had 2 cockerels) but couldn't find any nearby. In the end I put a chicken lonely hearts ad on the PekinBantams.com forum and I found a lady with loads for sale quite close to where I live (South Oxfordshire).

craftyhunnypie Posted December 16, 2007 Share Posted December 16, 2007 Hoar Park have got some bantams - they are not far from Nuneaton! They replied pretty quick when I was enquiring about some! They had a good choice about a month ago. I'd give them a ring! Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Christian Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 Try emailing barbara@omlet.co.uk she has a list of good breeders, hopefully one in your area! Good luck finding some. Or try the back of Practical Poultry magazine? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

leopard Posted December 17, 2007 Author Share Posted December 17, 2007 Thanks for all your help, I'm very impressed with my first go on this forum! Cheers Holly Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted December 17, 2007 Share Posted December 17, 2007 I've had soem pekins from the pekinbantams.com forum, and there are also some ads in the back pages of Practical Poultry magazine. That's always worth a look. They have great personalities, not the greatest layers as they are alway going broody - but no flock of mine would ever be complete without at least one.
