Everything you never knew you never knew about hens (and more!)
We have used Julie at Hedgerow Henprorium twice now for hens. 2 years ago we added Suzie and Roxie to our flock (a Sussex and a Rhode Rock) and on Monday we picked up Flora and Bella (a Swedish flower and a BlackRock). Julie is passionate and caring and very knowledgeable, when you meet her you'll realise instantly that she truly cares about her birds and that they are loved and cared for. The set up Julie has implemented in response to COVID is really impressive, all her hens are kept in their back garden and due to restrictions in being in peoples homes she has a really good set up in the garage to show birds. We were pretty sure what we wanted and she still brought a couple of other option through so we could be sure. If you have an opportunity to do a course with her in the future, or if she does publish an online introduction to hen keeping (which she absolutely should!) I would strongly encourage anyone, new or old to keeping hens to take it as Julie is one in a million when it comes to knowing about these amazing animals! Thanks Julie and keep up the good work!

Hedgerow Henporium review!
I made enquiries on-line via google search to purchase four hen chicks.
I was fortunate enough to identify with 'Hedgerow Henporium' and made enquiries with them. I was delighted with the service I received, and ultimately made my purchase having registered with them on-line.
Excellent service, wonderful Hens and a very professional well managed family business! I highly recommend Hedgerow Henporium!
Eggcellent service
Fantastic service, Julie was very responsive when we conversed via email. We’re looking forward to seeing what eggs will hatch. We’ll buy further hens in the future
Fantastic knowledge and support
We have recently got our own backyard chickens. Whilst deciding to venture in to having backyard chickens we reached out to Hedgerow Henporium via email with some questions regards setting up and caring for chickens. They were very helpful and knowledgeable and responded in a timely fashion to our queries.
Therefore once were were all established with what we needed to safely care for chickens we contacted them again to purchase chickens from them.
We have now collected our chickens and some additional items that were available on the shop, and we were and are very happy with our chickens who are beautiful and look so well cared for. We are eternally greatful for the advice and support that Hedgerow Henporium has given us in supporting us to take on backyard chickens and care for them properly. Big thank you to Julie and Keith.

Thank you for your help and quick responses. I now have four beautiful Swedish Flower chicks from you that have integrated very well with my Jersey giant chicks. They are doing really well and I won’t hesitate to contact you again when my chicken obsession requires new additions.

Excellent service. We collected our lovely young ladies this week. We were given good advice and were able to buy the correct food to start them on.

Great advice before purchase enabled us to get exactly the right equipment. We bought our chickens here also and they were beautiful and healthy. Any of our questions have been answered quickly and thoroughly. Highly recommend this place without hesitation.
Great experience from responsible breeders
We are on the waiting list for hens, but felt I had to comment about the outstanding experience we’ve had so far. The communication we have received has been comprehensive and with attention to detail. Clearly showing us that this isn’t just business, it’s a passion.
I feel safe in the knowledge that I’m going to be receiving my hens from such a breeder.

I was a total novice to keeping chickens, but with Julies advice, and recommendations I purchase three, 8 week old chicks . I had a worrying start when one of them got sick with the change of environment but Julie was there to give advice and provide the tonic I needed. That was last June 2018.I am hooked , I love to watch them in the garden and was so excited when they started laying.
I recently went back to Julie and purchased 6 fertile eggs which my Broody hens are currently sitting on. Cant wait for them to hatch in just over a week. Julie has been great guiding me every step of the way . Thank You Julie
