This late in the year you will have a tough time. I was put on several lists in January and still didn't get in line fast enough. What type of dorking are you looking for?
I contacted Dr. Bramwell. He no longer has Dorkings, but did suggest places to look. I also messaged the person listing the dorking pair. No response yet. The search goes on! If anyone hears of birds or eggs available please let me know! Thanks!
I am looking to begin a flock of dorkings this spring with the intent of breeding them. They seem to be the best bird for the job, as I'm looking for a dual purpose bird that is in need of preservation. From what I have heard they are hardy, family friendly, good foragers and tolerant of heat...
@capayvalleychick thanks for the feedback! I'm hoping I can find some raised within 500 miles of me..hopefully they will more resilient. That being said...I've been looking for a year lol.
I am interested in adding some Dorkings to my flock as I phase out other breeds. My family has varried interests (me eggs and good mothers, dh meat, daughter personality) and the dorkings seems to meet all three. I never have heard anyone mention heat tolerance for them. Anyone ever have any...
