Karen & co. Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I know it's not quite in the right area, but I bought 2 moorland legbars from Moorland Poultry a couple of weeks ago, they are hopefully blue egg layers They are outside Leek on the way to Ashbourne turning off left by the Green Man pub. Good luck with your search! Karen x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Egluntyne Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 That is not a million miles from me and I have a gap to fill now that Nugget has gone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJuff Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 A day trip to Yorkshire could bring you to Glencroft Poultry where they breed columbines!! They have a web site so you can see what they have. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alih Posted June 16, 2008 Author Share Posted June 16, 2008 ooh that sounds exciting too - will look at the website now...always up for day trips thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowy Posted June 16, 2008 Share Posted June 16, 2008 I'd heard there was some problem with the columbine/skyline breed at the moment due to illness, so suppliers were unable to get hold of them. It might have resolved now though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
