Hi Rosemary .....

... not really too bother ..... we have ex-batts at the moment ..... and are laying well, just collected 10 eggs from 15 birds ... but some of them are coming to the end of their productive life .....

So, don't mind if they are Hybrids or Black Rocks or Rhode Islands ..... some-thing hardy ....

Cheers

Pete
