Opening Hours

We are open weekdays in the evenings from 6.30pm to dusk. We are closed during the day from Mondays to Fridays.

At weekends we are open from 10.30am to dusk both days.

Boarding in and out is after 6.30 each weekday evening and after 11am at weekends.

Rehomes

We know that circumstances change and from time to time we get rehome chickens in. Our policy is to take hens in free and we rehome them at £5 to the new owner to cover their keep here. Unfortunately we get an overriding number of cockerels, and whilst we don't charge the new owners for them, they are usually here for a long time. We therefore charge £5 to take in a cockerel to cover our costs.

Contact us from the tab below if you are interested in taking some rehome hens or a cockerel for free, or need to find a new home for your hens.

By popular demand we now have a dedicated site to all the wonderful things chicken related. You can browse and order online and pay with Paypal, or shop at the farm when you come over.

Weaners available in September

We have Gloucester Old Spot piglings born on 1 July. Our piglings are weaned at 8 weeks and are then ready to go to their new homes. At 8 weeks old they are £50.

Contact us by email to alison@spottypiggies.co.uk or from the Contact button at the bottom of the page to reserve them. They are popular, so reserving one (or two or three) is best if you can.

Testimonials

12th Mar 2010

Dear Alison,

Thank you very much for the course. We really enjoyed it and it answered a good few questions for us on what breeds to choose and where to site the coop, etc. Not forgetting how to build it!! - Mel's next job.

I may bother you again in the future with the odd question - thanks again!.

Kind regards

Karen

Pied Suffolks

Pied Suffolks are £20 at point of lay. We do not have Pied Suffolks in stock.

Pied Suffolk hens are Rhode Island Red based hybrids and so have the prolific egg production associated with that breed. They lay brown eggs and maintain an excellent shell quality. They are a nice size bird with a very thick plumage. This makes them a hardy bird and well suited to our climate.

They have a striking appearance; a black body with black and white neck feathers gives them a very elegant look. This look can vary wildly from black with white flecks to white with black flecks. All in all the Pied Suffolk is a very pretty bird, with an added touch of elegance.

They suit the garden hen environment and are perfect as a starter bird or an addition to an existing flock.

They are hardy, docile birds and ideal as pets.
