Title: Wanted - Hatching eggs - Ayrshire
Post by: J D on February 10, 2016, 02:03:49 pm

Hi

I am looking for some hatching chicken eggs.  I don't have a particular breed in mind but they are mainly for eggs.  We are in East Ayrshire so ideally looking for some locally.

Thanks

We had that mix once, the colours of the hens were amazing, everybody commented on what lovely hens they looked.
