Our Birds

The Ixworths

Our breeding cockerel (Big Boy) is unrelated to the hens and egg fertility/hatch rates have so far this year have been very good from both under broody hens and home incubated eggs.

The eggs you will receive are from 7, 1st year laying pullets and live outside on grass in a coop and are free to roam around Meadowgate, they are currently housed in a large movable pen for breeding purposes and even so we still let them out daily to freely roam and forage during the evening before returning voluntarily to their coop to roost.

The Hybrids

Our birds are all totally unrelated and are of mixed stock (See Hybrids page)

We are pleased tooffer you a small selection of hybrid layers.

If it's friendly birds which lay lots of lovely eggs then these are the chickens for you.

============================

All of our Birds (Ixworths & Hybrids) are wormed on a regular basis, are fed on quality food and whatever they forage whilst free ranging around Meadowgate!

We aim to keep our birds happy in a totally free range environment.
