Re: what chicken breeds?

ive just found this regarding maff

Who has to register?
By law* you must register if you own or are responsible for a poultry premises with 50 or more birds. This requirement also applies even if the premises is only stocked with 50 or more birds for part of the year. At present, premises with fewer than 50 birds are not required to register, but we encourage keepers to do so voluntarily.

This does not necessarily mean 50 of one species (although this may be the case) but 50 overall, for example if you have 30 chickens, 15 geese, 4 ducks and 1 rhea you need to register.

Re: what chicken breeds?

Like I said it was a while ago and my vet hadn't really had much to do with chickens. It might have all changed now. I really would like some more but I doubt they would get any peace with my nosey dogs around.
