Welcome from France.  We keep poultry for eggs and for the table and brahmas just for fun.

One of my pups is down there - on an estate.  Say hello to Bert and Ray/Heather if you meet an orange and white Brittany (French Gundog) (photo attached)

Only about 50 k from us.  I see a lot of Breton spaniels as they are popular with the hunt, but not this quality, they are superb.  A real credit to you

Hello whitesettler.  I am not so very far from you, just over the border in north Cumbria.  (I'm the right side - your side - of Hadrian's Wall.  But only just.)

Will you be selling hatching eggs in due course?  :)
