Ain't Nobody Here Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 I don't know whereabouts you are, but have you looked in the Marketplace? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CallyChook Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 polands have been as rare as hens teeth this yr as demand has soared - they're like the Paris Hilton's pet of the yr!! try the breed club for info on local breeders The Poland & Poland Bantam Club - Miss Amelia Richardson, 11 Eastfield, Martock, Somerset.

Griffin Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 (edited) Whereabouts are you? I've bought Poland eggs from Luci at the Birdhaus near Brackley. She's got loads of different coloured Polands, not sure if she's got white crested blue though. PM me for details.

Redwing Posted September 12, 2010 Share Posted September 12, 2010 If you can give us an idea of where you are we may have some local suggestions Luci at the Birdhaus is excellent as Griffin says There is also someone who breeds them down in the New Forest area I think The breed club is probably the best place to start as show breeders will be sorting out their show and breeding stock now so someone who does not usually sell for a living may have some spare birds now who dont make the top grade but that will be very good quality Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue-DiamondChick07 Posted September 13, 2010 Share Posted September 13, 2010 I'm breeding next year. But you'll probably want them sooner. Derrrr, I have several in the inncy, so will have some in a few weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
