Chickens for Sale

There are hundreds of poultry breeders in the UK with chickens for sale and there is bound to be one not too far from you. You could try an internet search (just type in chickens for sale) or the yellow pages. Even better if you know someone who already keeps chickens and they will be able to recommend someone to you. You could also try the notice boards at your local pet shops/suppliers.

If using a farm, always give them a ring before you turn up to check that they have the breed of chicken you wish to buy in stock.

You will need a pet carrier to contain the chickens in transit. A cat box or dog cage would be perfect. A card board box would be fine too – as long as it is strong and has a lid.  Chickens are usually good travellers as long as you take all sensible precautions. Choose a local supplier, make sure your chicken(s) cannot escape in the car and on hot days make sure windows are open etc.
