Duck Tales!

Hello everyone!


So as you can see, we have some new, adorable additions to the JG family in the form of 86 fluffy little ducklings! This post is going to be pretty laden with photos, but they're just too cute to not!



These chickas are only one day old and so inquisitive! They are Aylesbury ducks - a traditional, English breed, that will be grow up to be white and chubby! 



We will now be rearing ducks throughout the year to compliment our Christmas sales, a new and exciting venture! 

Look at this guy!


For the first few weeks, the ducklings will live indoors under heat lamps, until they are big and strong enough to head on out into the paddock. 

With a Will for scale


Oh hey there!

Sorry for the overly soppy post this month - but come on, how cute are these things?! 



Remember, on a serious note (booo), Christmas is just around the corner so if you're thinking of having a beautiful, free range goose, turkey or ducks this year, give us a bell.

The Jolly Goslings have arrived!

Hello everyone and happy August!

As you can see the lovely little goslings have landed at JGHQ...look how nosey they are! They were keen to get straight out in their paddock on arrival - exploring their new home and neighbours. They calves and pigs are very puzzled! They have been happily grazing the paddock and even enjoyed the little rain showers the other day! They are about one month old their beaks and feet are starting to take on an orange tint, though no signs of the first honk just yet!

We have already had some Christmas orders come in (you organised folk, you!) so if you're considering going goose this year (or turkey or duck......) send us an email;

Over and out! x
