If you go down to the wood today....
.... you're sure to find some chickens!
Beautiful hens from Martins Wood Farm, East Sussex
Hybrid hens are a great choice for novice and experienced chicken keepers alike. They are incredibly friendly, hardy and adaptable. Hybrid chickens have wonderfully inquisitive natures and will not fail to reward you with a constant supply of delicious fresh eggs. You will become very popular with family and friends once they have tried them! We breed and supply hens in an array of beautiful colours and breeds that can lay either light brown, speckled, dark brown, white and even blue eggs.
Our hens live in mixed outdoor pens in our beautiful woodland location and we pride ourselves on the condition, quality and welfare of our birds. They are raised to high welfare standards and we are happy to answer any questions you may have about the hens. We offer a lifetime of free chicken advice to go with your new family members!
Our Point of Lay (POL) hybrids are between 16-20 weeks old when they are ready for their new homes and they will usually begin laying between 20-24 weeks of age. Also known as "pullets" at this age, our birds are sexed, so you won't get a cockerel unless you want one. We do not sell hens any younger than 16 weeks of age as they undergo a thorough 16 week vaccination programme protecting them against Marek's Disease, Newcastle's Disease, Salmonella, Coccidiosis, Mycoplasma and more.
We are delighted to be partnered with Chickens To Your Door (CTYD), allowing us to bring you over 40 different breeds of hens including large fowl and bantams, pure breeds and hybrids! Martins Wood Farm will be a pick up point for hens with CTYD, but all birds MUST be reserved via the CTYD website in advance. Reservations for hens in 2024 are open now, so please head over to their website.
