Blackrocks in Manchesterish area?

**Suechooks** · 22-05-2009, 02:10 PM

I've had a Black Rock from Creag Mhor Poultry in Nantwich if that's near enough for you? I've had her since September and she's laid every day since October.
Also had POL hens from Garden poultry in Kingsley near Frodsham/Delamere Forest. Not sure if they have Black Rocks but prob have something similar.

theres an apparent distinct lack of chicken breeders in manchester, there is a poultry auction in macclesfield though .... and there is a bloke with chooks of different varieties in stockport, dunno if he does full grown birds though he has previously advertised day olds ... he sells eggs on ebay and has lots of varieties, dunno if he has black rocks though, you could give him a ring he may have something or be able to point you in the right direction?? ..0161 449 8123

I've got one of those too and she's lovely - really chunky!

I'm hoping that once they start laying (they're only 15 weeks) I'll have a few fertile eggs to hatch out. I know they won't breed true with them being a hybrid, but they should produce some interesting progeny. Besides, they're all (including Basil) really pretty

It's over the Pennines, but just off the Woodhead pass.I got my blackrock hybrid from him.

Google black rock and you will find a list of approved breeders.
