Wanted: Laying hens Blairgowrie area???
« on: August 10, 2012, 11:24:43 pm »
Hi all.

My neighbour is looking to get either two or three hens for her large enclosed garden having admired mine for the last year. Does anyone have two or three laying hens available for sale in the Blairgowrie area?? Let me know breed and cost please. She can collect.

Many thanks.

Thanks for the link, but I'm afraid Aboyne is getting on for a two hour drive away.... A bit of a trek for two hens. Nice site though!

Hi
Collessie Feeds have some nice birds at a good price - about £15 i think. Was there today and they had Light Sussex-Bluebells-Orpington and Cream Legbars thats all i can remember so i hope that helps

I am based just outside Forfar and have a variety of laying hens which we would be willing to sell for £10 per bird, we have light susuex, rhode Island reds, orpington cross, and some random but pretty "garden birds"
