Maddeningly, I cannot find his card but if you phone Roux garden centre in Cadenet they will tell you when he is next due to come - and then you can phone him direct to order specialist birds.
But you might be better off just chatting to your neighbours. I've had bantams from mine and also Sussex Light chickens. The bantams were much more canny about avoiding the fox, but also much better at hiding their eggs! |
