Nesting box modifications in Eglu Go Up

[balti]

Hi.

Im looking for 3 silkie hens, different colours.

Can't seem to find anything anywhere near me that don't come as breeding pairs. Does anyone know of any

breeders or young chicks for sale?

Thanks

I am looking too, only place seems to be Happy Hens in Hereford

Bit of a track though, may be able to persuade OH, when he finishes putting in the new bathroom, but (stamps feet) I need then now.

You could try Birdie on preloved she's near Sandwich/Deal and often has Silkie chicks, not sure about adults though.

I can list a few places for you......

 

First up www.mayfieldpoultry.co.uk. They have blue, black and white available according to the website. If they haven't then G&S bantams in tenterden may do.

 

Next, www.cockerdoodlequack.co.uk. Mark has a nice set up, some lovely healthy birds and is very knowledgeable. The only downside is that his prices are a little more then others.

 

www.arkbirdsandbeeskent.co.uk. I've not been to these but they did respond via email when I was after a particular breed.

 

THen there's www.westmoorpets.co.uk - I don't know much about them, but they do breed silkies.

 

There's some to be getting on with. If no luck with any of them, there's a lady that advertises on preloved and uses the name birdie. She has a smallholding in Sandwich and more often then not, will have what you're after.

 

Good luck!

HAve you tried BEn at henhousepoultry in MAidstone? He breeds all sorts and is really knowledgeable!
