Storm Dave was rather unkind to our old egg stall, so an upgrade was needed!
Rather pleased to have been able to make this entirely from resources we had around the yard, meaning more money left to treat the girls to their favourite sunflower seeds and sweetcorn!

We’re looking forward to being able to keep a good stock of chicken 🐓 and duck 🦆 eggs for everyone at the front.

Linked to this, we would MASSIVELY appreciate it if our lovely customers could return any empty egg boxes. We have lots of eggs waiting to put out, but are rather short of boxes! Thank you 🙏.

We have a few of last year’s Silkie hens that are looking for their permanent roost. All are laying well. We also have a selection of cockerels. Please DM us if interested.

Lambing 2026 is going well and it’s brilliant to get the mums and babies out in the fresh air for a stretch of their legs!
