Wanted, table birds to raise
« on: February 23, 2012, 09:20:43 am »
Looking for supplier in South Lanarkshire (Scotland) who will sell day old table (hens) birds. Only require small numbers.
Also possibly looking at raising two turkeys if I can find supplier.

Pauline Shannon from Deanbank Poulty regularly gets day olds in usually monthly.  She is based at Biggar and you will be able to find her on google.

We will have bronze turkeys available from September onwards

Yes, second Annie's suggestion - I spoke to Andrew at the weekend, and he's going to have an incubator full of hubbard eggs started in the next week or two. Also I should imagine turkeys later in the year (in time for Christmas of course).

Hi Colin.  I am ordering eggs for table birds this week so they will be hatched around 20th March. I will send you a PM with my phone no if you want to discuss anything
