iandjsmum Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Happy Easter everyone. I'm fascinated by this breed but don't own any.... Does anyone have any and can they tell me what they're like to own? Are they good layers and are they easy to keep? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redwing Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 I dont have one but have seen them at shows, they seem very calm and sensible chooks They are rare and goodness knows they need some support so you should definitely get some Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Looney Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 I've never seen one....so you should definitely get one (or three)! Then you can post pictures and we'll all want one too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ain't Nobody Here Posted April 4, 2010 Share Posted April 4, 2010 Omlet has a Breeds section which covers Scots Dumpies . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
laurmurf Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 I've hatched a couple and still have a lovely black pullet who's just started laying. They aren't the brightest buttons but look great - like boats sailing across the garden. Not hard to get hold of if you're near Temple Newsam in Leeds, they sell loads.

ISCA Posted April 12, 2010 Share Posted April 12, 2010 Just being a pedant but they are called SCOTS DUMPY, not Scotch Scotch is a whisky and can refer to mist, broth and eggs Yours, a born n bred Scot Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
