Hi everyone. I found this forum by chance. I am trying to find out what breed my little black hen is. From reading this I have an idea now. Thank you. My next question is where in the Algarve can I get a cockerel for her. What it is I have three hens. the other two are 8 years old. But my little black one is only 4. She was bought as a fertilised egg for one of my other hen that went broody. I fear the two old hens may die soon and I don't want her to be left all alone. I live near Tavira in Portgal. Can any one help?
I am not sure where you would find chickens in Portugal. Have you tried searching on the Internet for a cockerel for sale in your area? By the way, welcome to Backyard Chickens.
