Learn Humane Culling Technique

Alison is a DEFRA registered poultry slaughter woman and we run courses to teach you how to humanely kill a chicken. It could be because the chicken is injured, an unwanted cockerel, or a chicken destined to be the next meal.

You will be taught to kill a chicken quickly and humanely in a way that you will be able to use easily at home.

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 no cost to the new owner. 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.

Testimonials

Dear Alison,

May I firstly thank you for such an enjoyable and comprehensive website. I have learnt many new things and as a person wishing to keep chickens in the garden for the first time, it has been perfect.

Hen Houses

We are proud to sell houses which are well designed and well made.

We have four designs, intended to be either used with the attached run, or be freestanding in the garden or in a large pen. The Princess is the largest house, while the Lady House will accomodate two or three chickens comfortably.

About the Shop

We have stocked feeders and drinkers for a while, but in a bike shed and out of view. In 2009 I cleared out the summer house that had been used for storage since we moved here in 2005 and started the shop. At first finding suppliers was difficult, but as the shop became established it has become easier to stock it.

From the outset we have only stocked items that we use here and find effective, so the feeders, drinkers and louse powder that you find in the shop are also used on the farm.

We have expanded into all things egg and have now started on a range of Chickenalia for a smile around the house at an outrageous chicken statue or a grumpy chick whisk in the kitchen. Click on the Chickenalia tab above to see what we have.

The items in the Shop on the website are for collection here, but we can post items if you email us with your order. Contact us from the Contact tab below.
