crele pekin hatching eggs are uncommon, you may have to look to the Pekin club for breeders -or have a look at our poultry suppliers pages :)

Hi agree with foxy  I have been trying to find some, I think there was some at the salisbury auction last year the hatching eggs start again next month so if you are near it might be worth a try

Thanks for that. I do belong to the Pekin Club and as of yet no luck. I know about Salisbury but at £35 for 6 eggs I'm not prepared to take the risk when I have know idea who's selling them. I have been down that road before. I have an amazing cockerel that I hatched 2 years ago from 12 eggs. Just need to find a very reliable source.
