Cream legbars? its hard to get good, correctly coloured stock! if you are on Facebook then there is a CLB breeders group they would know who has stock for sale.
Old and rare breed Ducks, chickens, geese, sheep, guinea pigs, 3 dogs, 3 cats, husband and chicks brooding in the tv cabinate!

Probably too far away from you but this chap is a good stockman and is careful with his breeding so you should get good layers.  He does a Chalkhill Blue and has them POL 16 wks plus on his site for £22.50

They are Commercial Blue Egg laying  Legbars rather than pure bred Cream Legbars but it depends what you are wanting them for, if its for laying blue eggs they will be fine,  If its for breeding on from then not
To follow my travel journal see http://www.theworldismylobster.org.uk

For lots of info about Marans and how to breed and look after them see www.darkbrowneggs.info
