Title: Silver Grey Dorkings Hatching Eggs
Post by: Jukes Mum on April 06, 2016, 12:46:30 pm

I have a few spare Silver Grey Dorking hatching eggs for sale. In North Yorkshire but can post.
Silver Grey Dorkings are a duel purpose bird producing pure white eggs and very tasty meat.
They are very docile birds and tend not to scratch much at all.
£1.50/egg (plus postage).
I may also have some 12 month old hens and some 24 month old hens available.

Hi Jukes Mum,

I'd love to buy some Silver Dorking hatching eggs from you if you're able to post them?  We hatched some off earlier in the year but ended up with four cockerels and one pullet so we'd like to try and up the female ratio a bit!

Might also be interested in half a dozen in a week or so once the current lot have hatched. Had one hen before and she was lovely.

Hi Dave
I have no plans to go to Durham any time soon, but have a dorking cockrel (about 7 weeks ish old) for £10 if you want to collect him. Alternatively I can post some eggs.
