Gold Dutch bantam hen wanted (Northumberland)
« on: June 23, 2013, 09:09:18 pm »
Went out to collect some hatching eggs today and came home with a pair of Gold Dutch bantams. had these years ago and couldn't resist them again  ::)
Anyway I am looking for 1 or more hen birds to go with them as I don't like keeping them in pairs
At a pinch I would consider hatching eggs  ::)

Don't have any for you sokel but there are some every time I go to the Lanark Auction Mart which is every month or so, maybe a bit far from you.  always fancy them myself, they are lovely wee things, very pretty, must be a breeder near you.  I could always look back post catalogues if you are stuck  ;)
registered soay, castlemilk moorit  and north ronaldsay sheep, pygmy goats, steinbacher geese, muscovy ducks, various hens, lots of visiting mallards, a naughty border collie, a puss and a couple of guinea pigs

I have been looking online but cant find any available down here, These came from Hethersgill and she only had the 1 pair. The hen laid an egg in the box on the way home so got that incubating  ::)
