There are none listed on this page but you could ring and ask one of them.

Other than the supplier list on this site, Practical Poultry magazine has a breeder listings section and also a 'classifieds' section, broken down into regions.  You may find a breeder in there that can supply you.

The only supplier listed for N of England is in Blyth which is a fair way down from you and he only has hatching eggs at the moment (I know because I rang him the other day!).   I didn't ask what breed of dorking it was, but silver is the most common so probably silver.

hi. drop me a line.  pay the postage and i'll send you some silver-grey l/f eggs if you like.  I've hatched lots of them this year so far. plenty in the brooders.  cheers, matt.

Peter, I live in the same neck of the woods as you and was looking into pultry recently.  I got in touch with Peebles Poultry Club who were very helpful and one of it's members is able to supply me with what I need.  Although it wasn't Dorkings that I was looking for, they still might be able to advise you.
