Welcome to Pembridge Poultry

Purebred poultry in Herefordshire. Selling hatching eggs to point of lay hens.

2025

Despite being one of the driest seasons that anyone can remember hatchings have been above average thanks to consistantly good fertility levels from February to our last hatch on August 27th. 

I am busy looking ahead to 2026 and having helped in a small way to get Norfolk Greys off the endangered list I have decided to sell all of them. In their place I am going to be breeding Buff Sussex which 

This year we have added Indian Runner Ducks to our range. We have got 3 Drakes (1 white, 1blue and 1 brown and white) so we are able to breed a really interesting mix of colours. Our 5 ducks are extremely good layers and anyone who hasn't had a sponge cake made with duck eggs has missed out on one of life's little luxuries.

Feeding and Housing

Much has been written about the feeding and housing of poultry. A quality feed is essential together with access to grit to get the best out of your laying hens. Most household waste is unsuitable but green vegetables are particularly good in winter months when the grass has stopped growing.  It is best to avoid giving them fatty glutenous products, and too much bread is not good for hens.

The breeding hens at Lower Brockaly run in large grass pens and live in dry airy houses with plenty of room.  From time to time I rotate sheep round the pens to act as lawnmowers, and keep the grass short and thick.  Most of the nestboxes are plastic to help reduce red mite, but nevertheless a continual program of red mite control is carried out 

All young stock are reared with access to extensive runs giving them plenty of grass and allowing them to forage so they grow up naturally.
