forest of dean redneck 11,190 Posted June 14, 2014 Report Share Posted June 14, 2014 When I seen game banties they are around £40 a pair or trio ,I've been sorely tempted but don't think I got room,and I'm pushing my luck with the serama cockerel . Quote Link to post Share on other sites
wicklapaul 2 Posted June 16, 2014 Report Share Posted June 16, 2014 Indian game are a very good buy. Make great clockers as well. they will usually go clocking abt 3 times a year. The draw back is they don't lay a lot of eggs because of that; plus the are heavy and will crush a fair few eggs unless you put them in a big nest box, it won't eradicate it but it helps. Good eating birds when crossed with Sussex fowl. Make around £30 a pair or £20 to £25 for a hen. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
