I shall have some for sale shortly, have 2 cockerels & 3 hens (I think). They are about 14 weeeks old now. Ideally wanted to grow them on a bit before selling. I could send you a picture, if it ever stops raining. I am in Burntwood, Staffs (5 miles from Lichfield)

LOL

the planning part is trying to collect & introduce two hens from two different places on the same day to stop them being too bullied.

Wotcha,

Yes I do have them (one cockerel and four hens, all unrelated)....but I lost five other hens to a dog attack late last year when we first set up here.

I haven't hatched any yet but will be putting some in the incubator probably in May.

A lovely bird. Very attractive and with such a docile temperament.
