Choosing & ordering

How are birds, pairs and egg packs priced?

Single birds are priced individually. A pair is one male and one female. Hatching eggs are priced per pack. Choose your option and quantity to see the total before adding it to your basket.

Is there a minimum order?

The minimum order is £80, before shipping. Each bird option also shows its minimum quantity: most young-bird choices require three birds, while young emus require two. Adult singles and pairs normally start at one selection. Check the minimum on your chosen product.

How does the 10% bird discount work?

Enter FLOCK10 in the coupon field at cart or checkout when your eligible live-bird subtotal is above £500 to receive 10% off those bird lines. Chicks, adult birds and bird pairs or groups qualify. Hatching eggs, flock-care supplies and shipping are excluded and do not count toward the £500 bird subtotal. The code cannot be combined with another coupon.

Delivery & preparation

Can you deliver poultry to my area?

Send us your postcode and the birds or eggs you would like to order so we can confirm delivery arrangements. Delivery is £28 per order, added at checkout.

What should I prepare before bringing chickens home?

Have secure housing, suitable bedding, feeders and drinkers ready before the birds arrive. Make sure the run is predator resistant and that fresh water and appropriate poultry feed are immediately available.

Does buying hatching eggs guarantee a hatch?

No. Hatch results can be affected by fertility, handling, storage, transport and incubator conditions including temperature, humidity and turning. Hatching eggs should therefore never be treated as a guarantee that every egg will hatch.

Hatching eggs for your next flock

Choose the species and an egg pack of 6, 12 or 30 eggs.

Practical supplies for everyday care

Feeders, a chick feed tray and brooding essentials: review the size, pack and current availability.

Why chickens make wonderful pets

There is plenty to enjoy in a garden flock, from watching your hens forage to getting to know their individual characters. Choosing birds that suit your space and daily routine helps you make the most of keeping chickens.

For families, feeding the flock, refreshing their water and watching their behaviour can become a rewarding daily routine. Start with suitable housing, choose compatible birds and give them time to settle into their new home.
