Point of Lay Pullets

Our hybrid pullets are litter reared and are fully vaccinated when they leave us at Point-of-Lay. We rear two breeds, Bovans Brown and Dekalb White. Both are robust layers and ideal garden hens. They both make lovely family pets.

Bovans Brown pullets lay a brown egg and are £12.50 each. They are easy to tame. 

Dekalb White pullets lay a white egg and are £17.50 each. They are a more slender bird than the Bovans Browns and they do eat less than a typical hybrid pullet, but the egg size is the same. They lay more eggs than the Bovans Browns over their lifetime. We do find they are not as tame as the brown birds.

We rear the two breeds together so they are used to each other from very early on. 

Pullet availability

We usually have pullets available until September, but unfortunately, due to chick shortages and unforeseen circumstances, we do not have any chickens available for the rest of 2026.

Please do contact us in December/January time to arrange Spring 2027 reservations.

We sell chickens by reservations and pre-arranged collections only.

If you are new to chicken keeping, or unsure how to introduce your new chickens to an existing flock, please just ask us on how best to do it. We have reared chickens for over 80 years so we can provide plenty of advice.

When visiting to collect your chickens, please take a pet carrier/crate or box to comfortably, and safely, take them home. A sturdy cardboard box (with a lid and some air holes cut in) is ideal. If in doubt about a box please take it with you and we will advise if it is suitable, and provide you with a replacement box free of charge if needed.

See our FAQ page for more information about pullet ages and breed.

"Brilliant prices, advice and the best chickens I have ever had"

"The chickens haven't stopped laying and are a very good temperament, mixing well with our existing chickens. Very welcoming owners and would definitely recommend"

"Although we kept half a dozen or so hens for 30 years + the hens we bought the other day are probably the best we have had. From the start they were very calm, a sure sign they had been well cared for, and started producing eggs the following day. Perfect for anyone just starting to keep hens"
