We breed over 100 varieties of hens and stock all your poultry needs! We supply quality day old chicks - point of lay chickens to domestic and small commercial customers, and are conveniently situated just off the A38 in Ivybridge. We stock an extensive range of poultry supplies, many of which we have tested to ensure you will not be left disappointed. Whether you’re just getting started or have k

ept hens for years, we are confident we can find what you need. Be it a house, drinker or even just a treat for your hens – we’ve got it all! Keeping free range chickens and hens at home or on an allotment is one of the fastest growing hobbies. Nothing is better than collecting free range eggs freshly laid by your own pet hens and chickens from your own back garden, then serving the eggs up to your family minutes later. If you keep your own hens you know what they eat, so no more worrying about additives in commercial chicken feed; your eggs will be naturally healthy and delicious. If you are new to poultry keeping, we will do our best to help you set up with everything you need and offer advice on poultry rearing, poultry housing, point of lay hens, pullets, their care and maintenance. If we don't know the answer to your question we will always try to find someone who does!

πŸ” Is Red Mite Affecting Your Chickens? πŸ”

Red mites are one of the most common pests affecting poultry, especially during the warmer months. These tiny parasites feed on your chickens at night and can cause:

❌ Stress and discomfort
❌ Feather loss
❌ Reduced egg production
❌ Pale combs and anaemia
❌ Poor overall health

Regular coop cleaning and early treatment are key to keeping your flock healthy and happy.

We’ve got a range of red mite treatments, powders, sprays and coop hygiene products available in store now to help protect your birds and tackle infestations before they become a bigger problem.

Pop in and speak to our team for advice on the best products for your flock.

Red mites might be tiny… but the damage they cause is anything but πŸ”βš οΈ

These hidden pests come out at night, feeding on your hens and leaving them stressed, weak, and uncomfortable. If left untreated, they can seriously impact your flock’s health and egg production.

Keep an eye out for signs like:
β€’ Pale combs
β€’ Restless hens at night
β€’ Drop in egg laying
β€’ Tiny grey/red specks in the coop

Regular coop cleaning, dusting, and preventative treatments are key to keeping red mites under control.

Protect your hens. Check your coop. Stay one step ahead.
