Title: Wanted Ixworths chicken fertile eggs or cockerel - Suffolk
Post by: LouiseG on February 22, 2014, 05:42:16 pm

Hi, I have a friend who hatched 6 Ixworth eggs last year, 5 girls  :chook: :chook: :chook: :chook: :chook:  and 1 boy, unfortunately the boy had a large growth and was culled. The girls are all laying well now and we would like to increase her flock, so she is looking for either some fertile eggs to hatch or a young cockerel. We are in West Suffolk (very close to the village of Ixworth  :) )so close for a cockerel would be better but happy to pay postage for eggs if further away. :fc:  Thanks for any help
