Title: wanted scottish borders hatching eggs
Post by: liffy on February 22, 2013, 04:02:25 pm

Hello
I want to buy some hatching eggs, preferably pekin bantams and some larger prolific layer breeds. Ideally I would like to collect. I am near lauder. Thanks

I have got fertile eggs from Copper Maran cockerel on Copper Black females at the moment, also some that are a bit more mixed. I am just south of St Boswells.

No, cockerel and hens are from last year. I change my cockerels every year. I normally charge 1.80 per half dozen eggs for eating, wouldn't change it for hatching, after all what you do with them after I sold them...
 
Eggs are medium brown.
