Poultry Breeder

Poultry Breeder / Supplier in Gloucestershire ref: 10362

We sell hatching eggs from our very fertile flock. Occasionally we will have live birds for sale too.

Welsummer are a beautiful breed of poultry. The cockerel is the inspiration for the Kellogg's Corn Flakes cockerel.

The Welsummer is a large, upright, active bird with a broad back, full breast and large full tail.

Welsummers lay lovely large eggs and the dark brown pigment can actually be rubbed off as it is added at the end of the egg laying sequence. They lay fewer eggs during the winter. They are friendly, easily handled birds which love to free range and forage for food but can also be kept in runs quite happily. They are productive for 3 years of their 9 year lifespan.

West of England Geese

West of England geese are a rare or heritage breed of medium-sized geese. They were originally found across the south of England in particular in Devon and Cornwall. They are auto-sexing, meaning that one can identify females by their grey markings on head and back immediately after hatching.

West of England geese have blue eyes, an orange bill, a dual-lobed paunch and a calm temperament. They weigh between 6 and 9 kg. The gander is white and sometimes shows some traces of grey. The female goose has clear grey markings on head, neck, back and the thigh coverts.
