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.

Chickenalia

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

1st Aug 2010

Dear Alison

Just to let you know that I enjoyed your course very much last Sunday. It has answered a lot of questions about chicken keeping for me and filled me with enthusiasm to get on and get some chickens of my own.

As we were all chatting about everything I didn’t get to comment on my scrambled egg breakfast which was absolutely delicious. The whole colour and taste was totally different from the scramble I make with shop bought eggs. Also my compliments to the chef as everything was beautifully prepared and presented.

The whole course was informative and fun and I may be back for a refresher once I get my own chicken.

Thank you again and best wishes

Gillian

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.

Food / Wood Shavings Bin

We are pleased to have found lovely green bins to blend in with your garden setting. They have tight fitting lids and are ideal for either chicken food use, or keeping your wood shavings handy to top up the floor covering if it gets too dirty between cleans. As a food bin it is big enough to put your feeder straight in at night so as not to attract rats. In the morning you just lift the feeder out and top it up again. Makes your life easier!

Green bin is £15

Feeding Chickens

It is important that your chickens have a balanced diet. They will fill up on tasty scraps and corn first, if given the opportunity, so the trick is to make the nutritious food freely available and to restrict the bulky food. A balanced diet, as for humans, consists of proteins, carbohydrate, fats, minerals, vitamins and water.


The main food to give your chickens is layers pellets and or layers mash.
