Blue-DiamondChick07 Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Hello I'm looking into getting a few more Hens for my Birthday, does anyone know of any good places to buy my Hens from in Essex? I got my current girls from Smilers Farm, but wanted to have a look about a bit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Debaser Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 I haven't used them myself but I've heard these are ok. http://www.upsonsfarm.co.uk/poultry.asp?topID=442%20&id=476§ion=Hens&set=0 Cheers, Dan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Olly Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Don't know whereabouts in Essex you are, but I got my girls from Kirsty at Hens4Homes - near Dunmow. Highly recommended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 Another huge fan of hens4homes here - Kirsty is marvellous and as mad as a box of frogs! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olly Posted March 22, 2010 Share Posted March 22, 2010 A word of warning, she has had a couple of open days but generally you need to make an appointment - it's a sort of small-holding, so she's not open to the public all the time. She is very helpful though, and I'm sure she wouldn't mind you just going to see what's there (although you might just slip a pet-carrier into the car, in case!).
