ali-s Posted August 8, 2007 Share Posted August 8, 2007 At last I've found a breeder with Banties to sell Hopefully going tomorrrow if OH can help set up the Eglu and run in the big run tonight. The breeder has 10 breeds for sale. I have chosen a Welsummer, Poland, Light Sussex and a Australop (Breed and number of chickens subject to change when I get there ) It will be a long journey as I will have to travel south to Angus, but I am on holiday and it will be a day out Just need to find names for them now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

smudgley Posted August 9, 2007 Share Posted August 9, 2007 HOw exciting.. photos please! PS - I can't believe anyone has to travel SOUTH to get to Angus. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ali-s Posted August 9, 2007 Author Share Posted August 9, 2007 Here they are Welsummer (brown) named Jeremy Light sussex (white and black) named Tallulah, Australop (black) named Ebony and Poland (Pom, pom head) named Freckle They are all 10 weeks old and so lovely. Took the 3 and half hour journey home in their stride The breeder is a really nice chap. Lots of Bantam breeds to choose from and all of them very well cared for. Natalie helped him catch our birds and he took time to explain all about them to her. Well worth the 7 hours round trip and a super day out. we are all tired now.
