Product Description

Our Sablepoot point-of-lay (POL) hens are available to collect now. These stunning bantams, also known as Booted Bantams, are a true delight, combining unique feathered legs with gentle temperaments. These hens are fully vaccinated and ready to join your other small bantams in a gentle flock. They will typically begin laying their small, creamy eggs at around 24 weeks of age.

For a smoother transition when bringing new hens home, we highly recommend getting a poultry drink, something similar to this, (available on Amazon - or your local pet shop), when purchasing pure-breed chickens. Moving to a new home and flock can be stressful, and using a drink like this can make a real difference in helping them settle in by giving them a boost of energy and vitamins.

Why Choose Sablepoot Hens?

Care Instructions for Sablepoot Hens

  • Housing Requirements: Dry, clean coops are essential to protect their feathered legs from damage or infection. Low perches and well-ventilated housing are ideal.
  • Outdoor Tolerance: Sablepoots are hardy but require dry outdoor runs, as their feathered legs are prone to soiling in wet or muddy conditions.
  • Feeding: Keep them on growers' pellets until 18 weeks, then transition to layers' pellets as they approach laying age. Supplement with fresh greens and grains as treats.

Important Information

  • Flock Compatibility: Sablepoots thrive in small flocks and are best kept with other bantams due to their gentle nature.
  • Vaccination: All hens are fully vaccinated, ensuring they arrive healthy and ready for your flock.
  • Group Size: We recommend keeping Sablepoots in groups of at least three to ensure social happiness.
