About

I have been keeping poultry for more than 20 years in the often wet and challenging County of Yorkshire.

The Barnevelder was my first rare breed and I started with a small flock of Gold Laced, now known in the UK as the Chestnut Barnevelder.

I have successfully exhibited both birds and eggs at poultry shows although these days between bird flu lock downs and travelling for work I don't do nearly as much as I would like.

I branched out into bantams, blue and silver laced

The majority of my egg flock is rare breeds, even though they are more expensive to keep.

Below: All of my chickens are reared and kept free range unless penned for breeding.

Eggs and birds are occasionally available for sale. UK mainland only.
