Right...
I'll try ringing them.
Naked necks are ugly lol but I never had them.
Was so do naked necks so it's probably theirs.
Do you know any other suppliers of meat bird chicks in the UK? I can't find anyone else! Except for massive broiler units that will only sell thousands

[macgro7]

I rang them. He said they still supply meat chicks. 86p a piece plus delivery.
I'm gonna order from them then 
He said to email him which breeds I'm interested in, how many etc.

[Dave C]

Well done mate 
Wonder why they not getting back to folk then 

I've always found Steve a good guy to deal with, the Farm Rangers are the Sasso Intermediate X431A and the Poulet Galouise are the Sasso T551 (which are very good DP and breed true).

Let us know what you go for mate.

[macgro7]

Maybe they have some issues with website e-mail receiving etc

[Dave C]

Well I'm pleased there still going strong.

There a nice couple and sell some good stock

The trio I bought last are out of quarantine now and I have mixed the hens with the other birds and my old cockerel and the new cockerel is now running with the r.i.r. + speckledy hens,thought i`d give him a change of hen

Faces are starting to reden at 17 weeks, there mothers started laying at 18 weeks last year, so fingers crossed for some eggs soon.

[Dave C]

Sold a lot this year but these are keepers
Like there shape

[Charlie1234]

Sasso`s are looking nice mate 

IG are looking strong ans shaping up nicely.

[Charlie1234]

Finally collected my R.I.R. Cockerel and he is a nice fella,easy to handle and easy on the hens,also I have 3 reserve Young I.G. cockerels in with them and not a sign of aggression.
Should make for some interesting breeding next year + plenty of meat from the surplus cockerels.

[Charlie1234]

Also the IG X Speckledy chicks I hatched for a local woman that was recently widowed has asked me to have them back as they are harder work than she had imagined 

[Charlie1234]

Last pictures I promise 

I have my mixed group of I.G. for next years breeding,older hens,show stock hens,young ones courtesy of Mr Dave.C  and a few I hatched earlier this year..My old cockerel + my chosen young blue cockerel..I do have 3 reserves tucked away also
