bennett Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 We are off on holiday 2moro down to devon, my chooks are going to a boarding for the week but seens as i will be leaving the urban hustle and bustle for the countryside thought it would abe a great oppurtunity to add to my girls. So does anyone know of anywhere around or near sidmouth that sell chooks? Pure breeds ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Redwing Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 How about the Devonshire Traditional Bred Centre near Crediton in Devon i second that suggestion - its a lovely place for a look round and has a shop and tea shop too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ISCA Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Most definately go to the DTBC: http://www.dtbcentre.co.uk/index.htm I got all mine from there and it's a great place to visit, excellent tea shop and although not cheap, the chooks are top-notch. Three of mine started laying this last fortnight (they are 25 weeks old now). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennett Posted July 30, 2010 Author Share Posted July 30, 2010 Thanks everyone, def worth a visit, a bit out of our way but has a play area so my kids can run around too. Think will be a trip for those cloudy days! I did nearly choke on my cuppa at the prices though! London price chickens me thinks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ISCA Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Yep, compared to hybrids they are expensive but they are fully vaccinated and the real thing when it comes to pure breeds. Mine all look fantastic, even if I say so myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
