Boybeck Posted February 25, 2010 Share Posted February 25, 2010 Where did you get the list of chicken suppliers from? I'm itching to get a silkie and light sussex in the Fareham, Hampshire area. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Clucker Posted February 26, 2010 Author Share Posted February 26, 2010 Never fear, there will be lots of piccies, now that I've found the cable again I just websearched for the breeds I was interested in that weren't more than 30 miles from home just as an exercise in window shopping...of course when one popped up run by a man called Farmer Giles I just had to look...then buy...

Little Clucker Posted February 26, 2010 Author Share Posted February 26, 2010 Bless my darling Chris; he said he might buy me a sweet cuckoo maran if we see one we like that's the single most romantic thing anyone has ever said to me! especially as he said he didn't like chickens, but I think he's bonded with my poor henpecked cockerel!

Hey boybeck ...I'm sure there was a card on scats in wickham with silkies for sale... Or try botley... There are a couple of farms/breeders that may have them good luck!!
