Hello everyone, this is my first time on this site.
I live on the isle of Lewis, that's at the top west of scotland.
I am thinking of getting some chickens in but know nothing about them, someone up the road gave me four ducks which have now started to lay, our first two egs arrived this morning.
I have a few questions which will help me make up my mind, can anyone help please.
How long will hens lay eggs for, one year, two years etc,
How long do they live for,
Do I need a cockerell,
Do chickens (and ducks) need worming, how often and what with,
Anyway that's it for now, cheers, sam
