We are re-homing our chickens….
« on: June 18, 2013, 04:52:03 pm »
After having chickens for five years we now have to down-size.

We need to re-home around 30 chickens in total (I have lost count, and they won't stand still).  They are Light Sussex (large fowl), and a good dual purpose bird.  We have around:
·         20 hens at 18-months old (still with 2 years good laying left) - £6 per bird
·         6 hens at 6 months old (almost at point of lay)  - £8 per bird
·         4 cockerels at 6 months old

These birds have been used to free-ranging, and are all in good health. 

Price is negotiable.  Please email for further details.  We are based just west of Perth

PM details and I'll put a note round Central Scotland Smallholders members.
Always have been, always will be, a WYSIWYG - black is black, white is white - no grey in my life! But I'm mellowing in my old age

Happy to separate,


Not surprisingly, the youngest have been allocated and the 18 month olds left on the shelf!  I am happy to rehome any quantity of the 18 month olds...


They are good layers, but unhappy being shut in.
